Fauci Diary Reveals CIA Collected SIGINT on Undisclosed Wuhan Lab Coronavirus Experiments Including Work with Chinese Military

Fauci's diary, released by Sen. Rand Paul, records that CIA officer Camille Hartman briefed him in a secure facility (SCIF) at NIH on June 4, 2021 that intercepted communications showed the Wuhan Institute of Virology testing pangolin coronaviruses, transferred from a Beijing research group, in transgenic mice, and that the Chinese military had separately conducted unspecified experiments in Wuhan 12. Records released alongside the diary show virologist Kristian Andersen, co-author of the "Proximal Origin" paper that publicly dismissed a lab origin, reacting to the same intelligence in a same-day private Slack message calling it "huge" if WIV had truly been working with pangolin coronaviruses 12. The diary also describes a "super spreader" event in China in July 2020 linked to "passage of a virus in a laboratory," according to a passage cited by Townhall 3. Fauci wrote that he called the briefer "naive" and the briefing "catastrophic," and at a June 7, 2021 follow-up with NSC senior intelligence director Beth Cameron pushed to bring in virologists from his own private advisory circle, with whom he had coordinated COVID-origins messaging since February 2020, rather than independent outside experts 12.
