U.S. Finally Cuts Off Funding to Wuhan Institute of Virology
July 19th, 2023Via: Washington Times:
The Biden administration has formally barred U.S. funding to the Wuhan Institute of Virology and signaled it would cut off the lab permanently.
The Department of Health and Human Services has determined the lab is “not compliant with federal regulations and is not presently responsible,” according to a Monday memo first obtained by Bloomberg News.
The Wuhan lab, which hasn’t received U.S. funding since mid-2020, is at the heart of probes into whether the pandemic-causing coronavirus slipped into humans from nature or as the result of a lab leak. Researchers at the lab studied bat coronaviruses.
