Original Note:
This statement seems to promote a conspiracy that the NIH, under direction from Dr. Fauci, funded research in the Wuhan Lab that (according to those who accept this conspiracy) created COVID-19. This is unfounded, and misrepresents the NIH's former interactions with this lab: https://www.politifact.com/article/2021/may/17/debating-origins-covid-19-virus-what-we-know-what-/
