According to the indictment, Morens and co-conspirators (including Peter Daszak of EcoHealth Alliance) allegedly used Morens’s personal Gmail account to evade Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests after NIH terminated the controversial “Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence” grant — which funded research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
The alleged scheme involved back-channeling non-public NIH information, coordinating to reinstate the grant, countering the lab-leak theory, and exchanging edits to letters for EcoHealth. In return, Morens allegedly received illegal gratuities, including wine delivered to his home for his “behind-the-scenes shenanigans,” along with promises of Michelin-starred meals in Paris, New York, and Washington, D.C. He also reportedly authored a scientific commentary supporting the natural-origins narrative

Morens served as a key advisor from 2006–2022, briefing Fauci, Congress, and the public on coronavirus policy.
We hope this is only the first of many PROSECUTIONS to come.
