’Saint’ Fauci ’demolished’ by Senator Rand Paul in ’testy’ US Congress exchange

Sky News host James Morrow says Republican Rand Paul “wasn’t having any of Dr Fauci’s attempts to redefine gain-of-function research“ as the senator proceeded to “demolish“ his claims amid a “pretty testy“ exchange this week in US Congress. Mr Morrow said Senator Paul accused Dr Anthony Fauci, the “liberal left’s secular saint“ of the pandemic, of “lying“ to cover up his role as head of America’s National Institutes of Health in “funding“ coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Dr Fauci rejected Senator Paul’s claims on the grounds what was conducted at the labs had been judged by “qualified staff up and down the chain“ as not being “gain-of-function“ research.
