Steube Demands Stronger Leadership from Biden and Democrats on Wuhan Lab Investigation

WASHINGTON, D.C.— U.S. Representative Greg Steube (R-Fla.) today released the following statements regarding the origins of the COVID-19 virus:

“Those who dismissed Republicans as conspiracy theorists for questioning China’s role in developing COVID-19 at the Wuhan Institute of Virology were completely wrong,” Steube said. “As we now carry out investigations, we need stronger leadership from the White House and Democrats in Congress to demand transparency from China and accountability for their deadly malfeasance – we cannot simply rely on organizations like the WHO or shady government officials like Dr. Fauci.”

Recent emails leaked from Dr. Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, indicated that the COVID-19 virus was not born of natural causes and was possibly manmade. House Republicans held a COVID-19 origins hearing this week in which every expert witness agreed that the COVID-19 virus was not naturally created.

Steube previously cosponsored legislation to get a full report on the World Health Organization’s involvement in the coverup of the COVID origins as directed by the Communist Chinese Party (CCP). Chinese Dr. Li Wenliang tried to warn the public about COVID-19 in December of 2019 and was silenced by the Chinese government. Subsequently, on January 14, 2020, the WHO tweeted, “preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus.”

Over 604,000 Americans and 3.9 million people worldwide have died of COVID-19.
