Biden Administration Faces New COVID-19 Cover-Up Allegations

Recent reports suggest that U.S. intelligence agencies and defense department researchers, who found evidence supporting the lab leak theory for the origins of COVID-19, were allegedly silenced. The FBI, which held moderate confidence in the lab leak theory, was not invited to a critical briefing with President Biden, where a conclusion with low confidence that the virus jumped from animals to humans was presented instead. These developments, highlighted by former FBI scientist Jason Bannan, have raised concerns about transparency and the suppression of critical evidence. Whistleblower Lt. Col. Joseph Murphy and others claim that federal documents detailing virus engineering were improperly classified, pointing to potential political influence over scientific findings. The Wall Street Journal reports that the suppressed findings have led to renewed calls for a deeper investigation into the pandemic's origins. Despite these claims, a final report by a House subcommittee did not find direct evidence of genetic engineering, although it noted undue influence in shaping the COVID-19 origins narrative.
