Were you ever asked about that paper by anyone?

    And is that the 2015 paper?
  2. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    That's the 2015 paper, yeah. Did you all read that? I'm just wondering, if you read my grants you must be almost numb.

    I'm not a scientist. But I am familiar with it. So let's turn to that paper. So that was a topic of, and I'm sure you've read the FOIAs about you since, a topic of great discussion. Early in 2020, February 2020, it seemed like all of a sudden that paper was sent around among several people. I think Fauci sent it out on February 1st to a number of people within the NIH.

    I wouldn't know when he did that, but I DC.Scheduling@LexitasLegal.com believe you.

  6. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    Yes. On the 13th of February, I believe, 13th or 14th -- again, exact day is going to be difficult for me to recollect without notes in front of me -- but on the 13th or 14th I was up in D.C. for a progress report meeting on a grant and also giving a talk at some meeting. So we scheduled a meeting for about an hour with his leadership team, and I met him either at his office or at one of the NIH buildings for the extramural program.

    Okay. So that meeting was the 13th or 14th?
  8. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    13th or 14th, yes.
  9. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
    It's not the 11th?
