EXCERPT:
Former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci bears direct responsibility for approving taxpayer funding of experiments at the University of Pittsburgh that grafted scalps from aborted babies onto the backs of laboratory rats, pro-life investigators charged Tuesday.
The research, published in the journal Scientific Reports in 2020, used full-thickness skin from the scalps of babies aborted at 18 to 20 weeks of pregnancy—roughly five months gestation—to create “humanized” mice and rats for studying the human immune system. Photographs accompanying the study show the grafted tissue growing tufts of fine baby hair on the animals.
Federal records confirm that Fauci’s NIAID provided approximately $430,000 in grants to the University of Pittsburgh researchers in 2018 and 2019 for the project. Additional NIH support was also listed.
