Original Note:
NIH had funded the New York-based EcoHealth Alliance, which subcontracted part of its grant to the WIV. This is public record with published studies and there is no evidence this was attempted to be hidden. The research grant did not constitute gain-of-function https://www.nih.gov/about-nih/who-we-are/nih-director/statements/statement-misinformation-about-nih-support-specific-gain-function-research https://www.mintpressnews.com/us-media-misrepresent-wuhan-institute-of-virology-lab-leak/278484/ https://www.nature.com/articles/nm.3985
