US infectious disease expert refuses to answer questions in hearing
Anthony Fauci, the White House's special adviser during the corona pandemic, refused to answer questions at a Senate hearing on Wednesday.
Fauci, on the advice of lawyers, invoked his constitutional right to remain silent more than 100 times during the hearing on the origin of covid-19.
The hearing was conducted after Senator Rand Paul published more than 1,000 pages of Fauci's notes from the pandemic and called him to the hearing under oath. According to Rand Paul, the texts contain different information than what Fauci told the American people.
Rand Paul repeated claims at the hearing that the pandemic originated in a laboratory, which he said was covered up.
Fauci previously stated that he would invoke the Fifth Amendment because of what he claims is Rand Paul's "obsession" with him.
