Dr. David Morens — a top advisor to Dr. Anthony Fauci when he was at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) — is being asked to hand-over documents from his personal email account related to Covid-19.
Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio) of the Coronavirus Pandemic committee made the announcement. Morens has also reportedly agreed to testify in front of the committee at a public hearing later this year.
Recent whistleblower allegations reportedly revealed new, additional evidence that Morens intentionally used his personal email to hide conversations about the origins of Covid-19 and subvert federal transparency laws.
That’s according to the committee.
Recently, Morens’s self-proclaimed “best friend” — EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak — released four document tranches that are said to have confirmed the whistleblower’s allegations. Daszak is at the center of the controversy related to his group’s use of taxpayer dollars to fund risky gain-of-function research at China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology where many believe Covid-19 was released.
Emails from EcoHealth Alliance indicate Morens provided Daszak with access to non-public information and offered insight into internal conversations at NIAID.
In one email, Morens appears to have disclosed Fauci’s efforts and provided Daszak with information about internal deliberations related to EcoHealth Alliance’s grant suspension. Morens wrote in an email to Daszak, “Tony is now fully aware I think and is I am told involved in some sort of damage control.”
In another email, Daszak agrees to contact Morens using his personal Gmail account instead of his government email account to communicate about information related to Covid-19 and NIAID grants stating, “David – We’ll communicate with you via gmail from now on” and then adds “we have 15,000 samples in freezers in Wuhan.”
The committee says that it is aware of additional correspondence related to Covid-19 in Morens’s personal email account that has not yet been released.
“Dr. David Morens purposefully evaded FOIA laws to give his ‘best-friend’ EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak non-public, internal information that had the potential to undermine the operations of the United States government. This is not only highly concerning, but it is also likely illegal. Dr. Morens must be held accountable for any abuse of power and his blatant disregard for the law. The subpoena for Dr. Morens’s personal email communication will ensure that the truth about this federal records violation is brought to light. Unfortunately, this pattern of abusing federal power appears to stretch beyond Dr. Morens, Dr. Daszak, and NIH. This subpoena is an important effort to ensure that federal health officials never again feel empowered to duck accountability to the American people and willfully undermine our elected government.”
Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio), Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic
Read the Select Subcommittee’s cover letter here and subpoena here.
Background information from the committee below.
- June 2023, the Select Subcommittee released a batch of emails in which Dr. Morens claims to hide Covid-19 information. Dr. Morens wrote, “I always try to communicate over gmail because my NIH email is FOIA’d constantly” and “I will delete anything I don’t want to see in the New York Times.” After receiving a letter from the Select Subcommittee detailing Dr. Morens’s potential federal records violation, the NIH removed Dr. Morens from his position and placed him on administrative leave.
- In October 2023, Chairman Wenstrup announced a subpoena for NIH records related to Dr. Morens’s potential federal records violation. NIH conducted an internal investigation into Dr. Morens’s suspicious actions but refused to share relevant findings with the American people or Congress.
- In November 2023, EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak appeared for a transcribed interview — during which he called Dr. Morens a “mentor.”In December 2023, Dr. Morens was scheduled to appear for a transcribed interview. The Department of Health and Human Services derailed the transcribed interview after they prohibited Dr. Morens from answering any questions about the origins of Covid-19.
- In January 2024, Dr. Morens appeared for a transcribed interview — after which Chairman Wenstrup vowed to receive access to Dr. Morens’s personal email account. Key takeaways from the transcribed interview can be found here.
- In April 2024, the Select Subcommittee revealed new information from a whistleblower that appeared to provide further evidence of Dr. Morens intentionally subverting federal transparency laws to shield discussions related to the origins of Covid-19.
