Increases in cases starting to taper. Still 150,000-ish, but hospitalizations and deaths decreasing slightly from prior week 20th anniversary of 9/11 - Multiple memorials occurring in New York , Pennsylvania , and at the Pentagon. Starting with the president’s announcement of the six point plan yesterday, there has been the expected pushback and objection from Republican congressmen and senators. In addition, There appeared yesterday in the publication “Intercept” a story about the typical gain of function issue regarding NIAID granting and the Wuhan lab. It resulted from the publication through FOIA of a progress report from the laboratory. It alluded to the possibility of gain of function . This created and expected firestorm of tweets that I had lied to the Congress and that gain of function actually took place and I covered it up. This has gained some momentum in the fringe press but nothing at all from the standard press.
