The Trump administration has redirected Covid.gov, a federal website once dedicated to public health resources, to a new White House page promoting the theory that Covid-19 originated from a research lab in Wuhan, China. What’s On The Website Now? The new site, now framed around the so-called “lab leak” theory, opens with a banner titled “Lab Leak: The True Origins of Covid-19.” It includes criticism of Dr. Anthony Fauci, the World Health Organization, and past pandemic policies under both the Trump and Biden administrations. Content on the site heavily references a December 2024 report from the Republican-led House Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, which concluded that Covid “likely” originated from a lab accident. The page also claims that US institutions like the NIH helped fund risky research abroad and that critical details were hidden from the public. The site challenges major public health measures from the pandemic, including social distancing, mask mandates, and lockdowns. It prominently features images of President Trump and links to Republican-led congressional investigations. Former health officials, particularly Dr. Anthony Fauci, are accused of downplaying or suppressing alternative theories about the virus’s origin. A statement from the White House reads: “This administration prioritizes transparency over all else. The American people deserve to know the truth about the Covid pandemic and we will always find ways to reach communities with that message.” Also read: Was Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin Hatch Opening A Staged Media Moment? What We Know What Was On The Website Before? Before the revamp, Covid.gov provided essential information for Americans during the pandemic. It helped users locate nearby vaccine centers, order free at-home Covid-19 tests through its sister site CovidTests.gov, and offered treatment guidance — including access to antivirals and care for long COVID symptoms. The page was also used to connect underserved communities to local health resources, including mobile testing units, walk-in clinics, and telehealth services. That functionality has now been removed or rerouted. Get Latest News Live on Times Now along with Breaking News and Top Headlines from US News, World and around the world.
