Dr. Paul spoke to Sean Hannity of Fox News on Friday about the deception of Dr. Fauci and exposed another startling revelation about the gain-of-function research being conducted in Wuhan with Fauci's blessing.
"There are worse viruses. This [COVID-19] is a bad one, it has about a one percent mortality. Three-and-a-half million people have died. But they've been experimenting with some viruses that have fifteen percent mortality. That would mean fifty million deaths right now. So this kind of research needs not to be funded by the U.S. taxpayer."
And if that isn't disturbing enough, Paul says, "Even after all of this evidence points towards the Wuhan lab, this last week, in committee, Dr. Fauci said that he still trusts the Chinese scientists."
In fact, he trusts them enough to send U.S. taxpayer money to the very scientists who likely created and released the COVID-19 pandemic onto the world.
One can only wonder if another deadlier pandemic leaks out of Wuhan in the future if it will be enough for Dr. Fauci, the highest-paid federal employee in the United States, to finally lose his job.
