IN THE NEWS---THE HOUSE OF REPS VOTED TO STRIP FUNDING FROM THE WUHAN INSTITUTE AND PARTNER ECOHEALTH

The House of Representatives voted to strip funding from the Wuhan Institute of Virology and partner group EcoHealth Alliance as part of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that passed on Friday, according to the watchdog group White Coat Waste Project.

The amendment blocks Department of Defense (DOD) funding for EcoHealth Alliance, a non-governmental research group that received $26 million in DOD grants since 2020, according to White Coat Waste Project. EcoHealth Alliance had previously helped fund an animal experimenter at the Wuhan Institute of Virology who some think could be the “patient zero” from the COVID-19 pandemic, White Coat Waste Project reported.House votes to defund EcoHealth and Wuhan lab (bizpacreview.com)
