Non-compliant EcoHealthNYC should be defunded
We do know that despite claims that COVID formed naturally in bats and then jumped to humans, no bat has been found that had the version of the virus that originally spread first in Wuhan, then the rest of China, then the world.What we also know is that EcoHealth Alliance did not follow federal regulations when it partnered with the Wuhan Institute of Virology to study bat viruses. That is the conclusion of a new Inspector General report from the National Institutes of Health.
Because EcoHealth failed to follow the law, the NIH’s ability to “understand the nature of the research conducted, identify potential problem areas, and take corrective action” was compromised. Fortunately, Republicans in both the House and Senate have introduced legislation to ban all federal funding of EcoHealth.
