HR: Final Report - Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic

AFTER ACTION REVIEW OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: The Lessons Learned and a Path Forward

Final Report of the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic Committee on Oversight and Accountability

U.S. House of Representatives - December 4, 2024

This report investigates the U.S. government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on controversial policies such as mask and lockdown mandates, and the approval process for vaccines and boosters. It also examines allegations of scientific misconduct and political interference in public health decisions. The investigation further explores widespread fraud in pandemic relief programs, including the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), Economic Injury Disaster Loan Program (EIDL), and unemployment insurance. Finally, it analyzes the role of the World Health Organization (WHO) in the early stages of the pandemic and the transparency of data related to vaccine safety.

The report scrutinizes the scientific basis and potential overreach of government actions such as mask mandates, lockdowns, and vaccine booster campaigns, highlighting alleged instances of overruling expert advice and reliance on flawed studies. A significant portion examines the funding and research practices of EcoHealth Alliance, including allegations of gain-of-function research, lack of transparency, and the potential role of the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Finally, the report delves into the widespread fraud and waste associated with pandemic relief programs like the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and enhanced unemployment insurance, alongside criticism of the World Health Organization's (WHO) handling of the pandemic and its interaction with the Chinese government. The overall purpose appears to be to assess the government's response, highlighting areas of mismanagement, misleading information, and potential legal wrongdoing.
