1) I didn’t read in that article anyone calling Fauci a worm

2) the article seems to voice objection to coronavirus study in a Chinese lab. Epidemiologists are mostly in agreement that East Asia and Southeast Asia are incubation environments for cross-species strains and animal to human transmissions that become pandemic threats. Wet markets are only a small source of those transmissions, as most mutations and shifts take place in the wild. Most of the world’s emergent diseases incubate in East Asia and Africa due to annual migration patterns. Because so many migratory birds interact with both domestic and wild species while in China, there is a great need for study in China that can’t be done in the US.

3) the article doesn’t address the need for studying pandemic diseases in China, nor does it talk about how little money $3 million is over 5 years and how little research that buys. Instead of cutting funding the US should be increasing it 100 fold and using that to buy lab space to work with and oversee Chinese researchers and experts.
