FAUCI: "There's a difference between the viruses that were funded by the NIH sub award versus anything else, anybody else in China might be doing." GRIFFITH: "Excellent." FAUCI: "We were talking about did the NIH --" GRIFFITH: "You're talking about what you funded." FAUCI: "What we funded." GRIFFITH: "All right." FAUCI: "And that's the point." GRIFFITH: "And -- and that goes to my next question, because I thought you might go there, and I appreciate that." FAUCI: "Right." GRIFFITH: "Because in an off the record member-level briefing in February of 2022, I asked about the likelihood of nature of a SARS related Coronavirus to have a furin cleavage site, particularly since it takes the 12 nucleotide change in there to make it so -- to make it as viral as this was going on. And at the time, you said to me pretty much what you just said, and I want you to just confirm it for the record, 'Well, that wasn't us. If that was being done, it wasn't us.'"
