1 check for “White Coat Waste Project”

White Coat Waste Project, Taxpayer watchdog group

“Fauci’s NIH division shipped part of a $375,800 grant to a lab in Tunisia ... to drug beagles and lock their heads in mesh cages filled with hundreds of infected sand flies.”

FactCheck.org rated this: Didn't Fund That Project

FactCheck.org says: The agency funded some research using beagles, but it denied funding the Tunisia project that went viral on social media because it involved sedated beagles whose heads were stuck in mesh cages with diseased sand flies.
