EXPLOSIVE EMAILS SHOW TOP NIH ADVISER DELETED RECORDS, USED "SECRET" BACK CHANNELS TO HELP FAUCE EVADE COVID TRANSPARENCY

New York Post: Explosive emails show top NIH adviser deleted records, used ‘secret’ back channels to help Faucievade COVID transparency---A top adviser at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) deleted records critical to uncovering the origins of COVID-19 — and used a “secret back channel” to help Dr. Anthony Fauci and a federal grantee that funded gain-of-function research in Wuhan, China, evade transparency.

NIH senior adviser Dr. David Morens improperly conducted official government business from his private email account and solicited help from the NIH’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) office to dodge records requests, according to emails revealed in a memo by the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, which The Post obtained Wednesday.

“[I] learned from our foia [sic] lady here how to make emails disappear after I am foia’d [sic] but before the search starts,” Morens wrote in a Feb. 24, 2021, email. “Plus I deleted most of those earlier emails after sending them to gmail [sic].” Read more here.
