Newly revealed documents show that Dr. Anthony Fauci, former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, was intimately involved in the shaping of the federal government’s intelligence information at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Declassified documents released in recent weeks by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) and former Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard indicate that the intelligence community, consisting of 18 agencies, heavily relied upon Fauci’s expertise when making pronouncements regarding the origin of SARS-CoV-2.
