“This action will ensure that [Wuhan Institute of Virology] does not receive another dollar of federal funding,” a HHS spokesperson told the outlet.
The United States government has scraped funding for the controversial Wuhan Institute of Virology, which has long been scrutinized as the possible origin of COVID-19, after the facility didn’t fork over documents about safety and security, according to a report.The Department of Health and Human Services informed the Wuhan lab of its determination and is looking to completely stop any future funds from going to the lab, the memo indicates.
“This action will ensure that [Wuhan Institute of Virology] does not receive another dollar of federal funding,” an HHS spokesperson told the outlet. The funding decision comes as the US and China continue to be at odds over the communist regime’s lack of transparency tied to the origin of the deadly COVID-19 pandemic.AFP via Getty Images
