U.S. government scientists funded by the National Institutes of Health claim they have deliberately infected mammals with contemporary H5N1 bird flu viruses—experiments that produced severe respiratory disease and high death rates among the animals, according to a newly published study in Nature Communications.

The research was funded through the Intramural Research Program of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)—a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH)—meaning the project was conducted using U.S. federal government funding inside government laboratories.

The experiments were carried out by NIAID scientists at the Rocky Mountain Laboratories in Hamilton, Montana, a U.S. government high-containment bioresearch facility.

U.S. government researchers deliberately infected mammals with one of the world’s most feared pandemic pathogens.

NIAID is led by Dr. Jeffery Taubenberger, while the NIH is led by Dr. Jay Bhattacharya.  (See link for article)
