NIH funneling millions in taxpayer dollars to Chinese labs that perform cruel and unnecessary experiments on dogs

10/03/2024 / By Kevin Hughes

An investigation by researchers affiliated with the White Coat Waste (WCW) Project has revealed that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is using taxpayer dollars to fund Chinese labs that are performing cruel experiments on animals without justifiable public health reasons.

According to the WCW Project’s report, the NIH is currently providing at least one Chinese lab with over $2 million in U.S. tax dollars “to force-feed and inject puppies and other animals with experimental drugs in completely unnecessary and wasteful tests.”

At least 28 animal labs in China are currently eligible to receive taxpayer funding from the NIH. One of these labs, Pharmaron, has an active contract with the NIH, which involves the agency paying the Chinese lab $124,200 to test experimental drugs on dogs.

The Food and Drug Administration does not mandate that human drugs be tested on dogs. This, the WCW Project notes, indicates that the experimentation on dogs is cruel, unnecessary and unlikely to provide researchers with sufficient data on the experimental pharmaceuticals.

The WCW Project’s investigation notes that some of these experiments result in the Chinese lab killing beagles as young as one-day-old and detaching the spinal cords off other beagle puppies.

Chinese animal labs authorized for U.S. funding are regulated by or connected to CCP

The WCW Project’s investigation also warned that most of the 28 animal labs in China authorized to receive U.S. taxpayer funding are either connected to or regulated by the Chinese Communist Party and the People’s Liberation Army. These labs may also be used to carry out dangerous virus experiments that can create epidemics.

“[Anthony] Fauci is the funding father of Uncle Sam’s worst experiments on pets, and even though he’s gone from government, we’re still mopping up his animal testing mess. We recently killed a Fauci-funded plan to revive discredited kitten experiments that we got canceled under President [Donald] Trump, and we stopped Fauci’s wasteful $1.8 million runny nose drug tests on puppies back in 2022,” said Anthony Bellotti, the WCW Project founder and president.

“But our investigations and lawsuits have exposed how Fauci’s legacy of wasteful spending on painful pet abuse lives on, including cruel COVID experiments on cats, $4 million ‘maximum tolerated dose’ drug tests on beagles, biting fly experiments on abandoned pet hounds, and painful tick experiments on puppies,” continued Bellotti. “We applaud Rep. Gosar and his colleagues for their outstanding work to investigate and eliminate tens of millions in taxpayer-funded pet abuse that Fauci signed off on and set into motion.”

Bellotti is referring to Rep. Paul Gosar’s (R-AZ) open letter demanding that National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director Dr. Jeane Marrazzo suspend all active funding that involves lab testing on dogs and cats.

Gosar sent this demand after receiving a report from the WCW Project that the NIAID had spent nearly $4.2 million on a contract for toxicity testing on dogs. Following an adjustment in June, the current cost of the contract was reduced to around $3.7 million. The testing is ongoing and scheduled to continue through April 2025 with support from U.S. taxpayers. (Related: NIH a money laundering front for bioweapons programs in China.)

“In light of new information contained in this letter, we request that all active NIAID funding for dog and cat research be immediately suspended until NIAID has reviewed dog and cat research approved by Fauci to identify and eliminate spending on unnecessary projects before any more taxpayer money and animals’ lives are wasted,” the letter reads.
