The paper, later published in Nature Medicine, argued that Covid had “mutations” that supported the explanation that it had been transmitted to humans from animals. One of the four authors, Dr. Kristin Andersen, admits in a cover email sent to Nature that Fauci “prompted” the paper’s drafting in order to “disprove” the lab-leak theory." "In April, 2020, Fauci addressed reporters at a White House press conference alongside former president Trump, pointing to the paper as justification for his belief that the lab-leak theory was a far-fetched conspiracy. Fauci did not acknowledge his own role in commissioning the paper and feigned ignorance as to the identities of its authors... “There was a study recently where a group of highly qualified evolutionary virologists looked at the sequences … in bats as they evolve and the mutations that it took to get to the point where it is now is totally consistent with a jump of a species from an animal to a human,” Fauci said at the time. “So, the paper will be available. I don’t have the authors right now, but we can make it available to you,” he said. Fauci told National Geographic a month later that Covid “could not have been artificially or deliberately manipulated.” [1] - "Fauci ‘Prompted’ Scientific Paper Purporting to Debunk Covid Lab-Leak Theory, Emails Show" - https://www.nationalreview.com/news/fauci-prompted-scientific-paper-purporting-to-debunk-covid-lab-leak-theory-emails-show/ https://www.nationalreview.com/news/fauci-prompted-scientifi...
