Documents reveal FBI intervened in planned questioning of COVID researcher

Newly released documents from Sen. Rand Paul are renewing debate over the origins of COVID-19. The records include emails showing EcoHealth Alliance's former president, Dr. Peter Daszak, was designated an "extremely high person of interest" by U.S. Customs and Border Protection before officials were reportedly instructed not to stop him upon his return from China. The documents are fueling fresh claims of a potential lab leak cover-up ahead of Dr. Anthony Fauci's upcoming Capitol Hill testimony. _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: WOAI on Instagram:   / news4sa   WOAI on Facebook:   / news4sa   WOAI on Twitter:   / news4sa   Subscribe to WOAI on YouTube:    / @woaivideo   Daily News Playlist:    • Playlist   For more information, visit https://news4sanantonio.com/ Have a news tip?
