Gain-of-Function Research 'Probably Caused the Greatest Pandemic' in History
Former CDC director also believes COVID-19 was the result of a lab leak

Former CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield testified to Congress before the House Oversight and Accountability Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic. He confirmed the virus came from Wuhan, believes gain-of-function research caused the greatest pandemic in history and says Fauci shut him out of virus-origin discussions.
COVID-19 more likely was the result of a lab leak:
Based on my initial analysis of the data, I came to believe and I still believe today that it indicates that COVID-19 more likely was the result of an accidental lab leak than a result of a natural spillover event.
Several suspicious events occurred at the Wuhan Institute of Virology right before the beginning of the pandemic 2020:
Dr. Robert Redfield: "In September 2019, three things happened in that lab," which are "highly unusual."
1. "They deleted the sequences — was highly irregular. Researchers don't usually like to do that."
2. "They changed the command and control of the lab from the civilian control to the military control — highly unusual."
3. "They let a contractor redo the ventilation system in that laboratory."
“Clearly, there was strong evidence that there was a significant event that happened in that laboratory in September.”
The Wuhan Institute of Virology was conducting gain-of-function research:
Rep. Brad Wenstrup: “In your expert opinion was the Wuhan Institute conducting gain of function research?”
Dr. Redfield: “Absolutely.”
Rep. Brad Wenstrup: “Has gain-of-function stopped a pandemic in your opinion?”
Dr. Robert Redfield: “No, on the contrary, I think it probably caused the greatest pandemic our world has seen.”
The National Institutes of Health (NIH), the State Department, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the United States Department of Defense (DoD) funded the development of SARS-CoV-2:
Rep. Nicole Malliotakis: “Is it likely that American tax dollars funded the gain-of-function research that created this virus?
Dr. Robert Redfield: "I think it did — not only from NIH but from the State Department, USAID, and from DOD."
Dr. Fauci excluded the CDC Director from COVID-19 discussions because he had a different opinion on the origin of COVID-19:
Rep. Nicole Malliotakis: “Why do you think you were excluded from those calls?”
Dr. Robert Redfield: “Because it was told to me that they wanted a single narrative and that I obviously had a different point of view.”
Summary
Fauci froze out the CDC Director in the middle of a pandemic.
Fauci (and others) funded the creation of SARS-CoV-2.
Fauci knew and authorized gain-of-function.
Another confirmation of the lab leak theory.
Fauci has since dismissed Dr. Redfield’s accusations as “completely untrue.”
It’s pretty clear we paid for COVID under the direction of Fauci and then Fauci lied about it to cover it up.
Will Fauci ever be held accountable?
Again…
Hopefully the collapse of the COVID narrative will promote broader skepticism of government & MSM stories generally. We've been fed a lot of lies the last 20 years.
Dr. Fauci is guilty of mass murder and is an enemy of humanity. He should rot in prison for the rest of his life. Moreover, his wife also is complicit along with him. All this information has been available to anyone who cared enough to search for it online. Marxist/Leninist members of our government (deep state) are all guilty as charged for suppressing this information from the American people. Prison for all of them.
