Anthony S. Fauci, known for his leadership during the coronavirus response, is preparing to testify on Wednesday. The testimony will bring him face-to-face with Sen. Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), who has repeatedly accused Fauci of having a hand in the virus’s origin. The scientist has denied these claims, maintaining that he was not involved in the creation of the virus.
This upcoming hearing follows years of tension between Fauci and Paul. The latter has been vocal in his allegations, often bringing attention to Fauci’s past role at the National Institutes of Health. Fauci, a former NIH scientist, has consistently refuted the senator’s assertions.
