Summary
Senator Rand Paul released documents showing that Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents were preparing to question British zoologist Peter Daszak about his involvement in COVID-19 origins research, but the FBI intervened and asked them to stand down. Daszak had collaborated with the Wuhan Institute of Virology and received funding for gain-of-function research. The documents highlight concerns about Daszak’s activities and potential conflicts of interest. The FBI’s request to halt the questioning was made three days before Daszak’s arrival in New York.
