U.S. funding for China's Wuhan Institute of Virology has been suspended by the Biden Administration after a Department of Health and Human Services review determined that the research facility, which is at the center of a theory over the origins of the deadly COVID-19 pandemic, is "not compliant with federal regulations and is not presently responsible."
According to an HHS memo, the agency has also proposed barring the Wuhan Institute from doing any business with the U.S. government moving forward, reports CNN.
An HHS spokesperson said the determination was made after the Wuhan facility stonewalled the National Institutes of Health on its requests for documentation on research "related to concerns that WIV violated NIH's biosafety protocols."
