he Trump administration has replaced the Covid.gov website, once a central hub for COVID-19 resources, with a new platform focusing on the lab leak theory regarding the virus's origins.
The revamped website now redirects users to a White House page supporting the idea that the coronavirus likely emerged from a laboratory in Wuhan, China.
Previously, Covid.gov offered crucial information on vaccines, testing, and long COVID support, but it now highlights a December report from the Republican-led House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, which suggests that the pandemic may have started due to a “laboratory or research-related accident.”
White House spokesperson Kaelan Dorr explained the change, stating that it reflects the Trump administration’s commitment to transparency. He emphasized, “In contrast to the previous administration, we WILL be the most transparent administration in US history.”
This shift comes amid significant cuts to COVID-19-related funding, including an $11.4 billion reduction by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the cancellation of various research grants by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), including a $577 million project aimed at developing oral antiviral drugs. The move has sparked further debate about the administration’s priorities in handling ongoing public health challenges.
