"As alleged in the indictment, Dr. Morens and his co-conspirators deliberately concealed information and falsified records in an effort to suppress alternative theories regarding the origins of COVID-19."
"Government officials have a solemn duty to provide honest, well-grounded facts and advice in service of the public interest—not to advance their own personal or ideological agendas."
David Morens, a former senior official at the National Institutes of Health, has been indicted for conspiracy and for allegedly concealing and falsifying records related to COVID-19's origins. The indictment claims that Morens and co-conspirators attempted to suppress alternative theories about the pandemic's origins. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche emphasized the importance of government officials providing honest information during a public health crisis. Morens was a senior aide to Anthony Fauci, who is not implicated in the indictment.
