After Dr. Anthony Fauci was caught lying about NIH involvement in coronavirus gain-of-function research, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HSS) revealed a government document called the “Framework for Guiding Funding Decisions about Proposed ResearchInvolving Enhanced Potential Pandemic Pathogens.”
The 2017 HHS document reveals the US government is involved in funding and overseeing research to “create, transfer, or use”pandemic pathogens. The document reveals the existence of a review process and a regulatory framework to assess the safety and necessity of this controversial research. One of the goals of the framework is to provide researchers a pathway to subvert the 2014 moratorium on gain-of-function research. The criteria for lifting the moratorium are discussed further herein.
Several government agencies are involved in the review process of this unethical research. These agencies include the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) in consultation with the Departments of HHS, Defense, Homeland Security, Agriculture, and Justice, generally acting through the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The HHS P3CO Framework “ensures a multidisciplinary, department-level pre-funding review and evaluation of proposed research meeting the scope outlined herein to help inform funding agency decisions.”
According to these revelations, the gain-of-function research funded by Dr. Fauci and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease that was carried out through Eco Health Alliance and the Wuhan Institute of Virology includes a long paper trail of safety reviews and oversight that was conducted through various government agencies. The documents need to be summoned to court, to reveal the process by which Dr. Fauci, Dr. Daszak, Dr. Barrick, and Dr. Shi Zheng-li subverted the moratorium on gain-of-function research, and to detail the stated purpose of their research.

Loophole was developed through the HSS to subvert moratorium on gain-of-function research
Right away, the HSS document establishes that research “involving potential pandemic pathogens (PPPs)” is essential for protecting global health. A PPP is defined as a “highly transmissible” pathogen, capable of “wide and uncontrollable spread among humans” and likely to “cause significant morbidity and/or mortality.” The document reveals that such research may result in the development of an enhanced PPP. The document defines an enhanced PPP as “resulting from the enhancement of the transmissibility and/or virulence of a pathogen.” The document reveals that enhanced PPPs are NOT naturally occurring pathogens. The HHS admits that bioweapon research is real, that the US government knows about this research and oversees it, and admits the possibility that enhanced pandemic pathogens can escape containment.
