criteria for gain of function the eco health alliance filed its first four annual reports prior to fouchy testifying before congress they only filed their NUMBER_TOKEN-NUMBER_TOKEN report in august of NUMBER_TOKEN well after the may and july senate hearings and it was this NUMBER_TOKEN-NUMBER_TOKEN report that showed evidence that their experiments were causing gain of function mutations to occur which means that it's possible that at the time voucher was correct in saying that the nih had not designated it as a gain of function research nonetheless even if out she didn't intentionally lie at the time what he said then is now false and senator ron paul who in may and july insisted that the eco health alliance were by definition of the phrase performing gainer function research is feeling pretty smug about it with tweets like this one the nih letter did state that the results shown in the NUMBER_TOKEN-NUMBER_TOKEN report were most likely an unintentional consequence of the research and not the intention of the researchers regardless the nih has demanded that eco health submit to them all further unpublished data from these experiments within five days of their letter to congress in addition the nah maintains that there's no connection between the viruses are being experimented on in wuhan and the origin of covidNUMBER_TOKEN the sars cove ii virus that causes covidNUMBER_TOKEN is found to be only NUMBER_TOKEN to NUMBER_TOKEN similar to the viruses that were being worked on in wuhan to put that in context the nih has said that today's human genome is NUMBER_TOKEN similar to our closest ansense to our closest ancestor the chimpanzee humans and chimpanzees are thought to have diverged approximately six million years ago basically this is the nih saying that these viruses are evolutionarily too far apart to be the cause of the covidNUMBER_TOKEN pandemic but we should also note that primates and viruses do evolve at very different rates so what happens to fouchy now well congressional republicans are calling for his dismissal and senator ron paul has also referred fouchy's may testimony to attorney general merrick garland for investigation into perjury charges whether or not garland acts on this referral is up to his discretion and he's yet to confirm any investigations into the matter but what do you think did fauci knowingly lie to congress should he be investigated by the attorney general or is this just an attempt by republicans to push the lab leak theory yet further let us know your thoughts in the comments below if you want to get even more involved though you can back us on patreon which gets you a whole load of perks from exclusive live events early access to videos behind the scenes posts the ability to vote on our video topics and more the link to the patreon is down below and thanks for your support because we literally couldn't do it without you also be sure to subscribe the channel and hit the bell icon to be notified every time we release a new video and as i said if you want to see your name and then the videos then you too can back us on patreon the link to that is in the description
