Newly released emails reveal that in January 2020, Dr. Anthony Fauci possessed crucial information regarding the origins of COVID-19. However, during that critical period when the nation was just beginning to comprehend the virus, Dr. Fauci opted not to disclose the information to the American people. Rather, he worked to keep it hidden, The Federalist reported this week.

At 10:32 p.m. on January 31, 2020, Dr. Kristian Andersen, a British researcher who has received millions of dollars in grants from the NIH, sent an email to Dr. Fauci. In the email, Dr. Andersen cautioned Dr. Fauci about certain matters:
[O]ne has to look really closely at all the sequences to see that some of the features (potentially) look engineered . . . Eddie [Holmes], Bob [Garry], Mike [Ferguson] and myself all find the genome inconsistent with evolutionary theory.
At 12:29 a.m. on February 1, two hours after receiving the email from Dr. Andersen, Dr. Fauci emailed his longtime deputy, Dr. Hugh Auchincloss. The email contained a paper co-authored by Dr. Ralph Baric and Dr. Zhengli-Li Shi, also known as the “bat woman” from Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV). The paper emphasized NIH-funded gain-of-function research on coronaviruses carried out by the WIV. Dr. Fauci informed Dr. Auchincloss that he should read the paper immediately:
It is essential that we speak this [morning]. Keep your cell phone on . . . read this paper . . . you will have tasks today that must be done.
“Urgency. Intensity,” noted The Federalist.
At 2:48 a.m., two hours after emailing Dr. Auchincloss, Dr. Fauci sent another email, this time to Dr. Robert Kadlec, who was the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response at the Department of Health and Human Services under the Trump administration. The email included an article that minimized the possibility of a lab leak and argued in favor of a natural origin of COVID-19. Dr. Fauci’s email contained only a brief message: “Bob, this came out today. Gives a balanced view.”
