Biden’s Vax-Focused COVID-19 Website Replaced with “True Origins” Virus Guide, Says White House Prioritizing Transparency
In a bold move, the Trump administration unveiled a revamped COVID.gov website this Friday, shifting the focus away from promoting COVID-19 vaccines to revealing the “true origins” of the virus. The site now provides detailed evidence supporting the lab leak theory, while taking aim at Democrats, the media, and public health officials for their handling of the pandemic’s origins and the controversial measures they imposed.
A senior administration official emphasized the administration’s commitment to transparency. “This administration prioritizes transparency over all else,” the official told Fox News Digital. “The American people deserve to know the truth about the COVID pandemic, and we will always find ways to reach communities with that message.”
The redesigned website, once a hub for promoting vaccinations, now delves into contentious topics like the lab leak theory and public health mandates. One of the most significant additions is an examination of the origins of COVID-19, presenting evidence that challenges the narrative pushed by former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director, Dr. Anthony Fauci, who repeatedly asserted that the virus likely had a natural origin.
The site calls attention to Dr. Fauci’s promotion of The Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2 publication, which was widely used by public health officials and media outlets to dismiss the lab leak theory. The new site argues that Fauci’s efforts to discredit this theory were part of a larger push to frame COVID-19 as a naturally occurring virus, something that has come under increasing scrutiny.
The site highlights key details that bolster the lab leak theory, including a biological characteristic of the virus that, according to experts, has not been found in nature. It also notes that Wuhan, China—the location where the first COVID-19 case was reported—is home to China’s leading SARS research lab, raising questions about the virus’s origin.
A particularly striking claim is that if there was evidence supporting a natural origin for COVID-19, it would have likely surfaced by now. “But it hasn’t,” the site states.
In 2025, the CIA, under the Trump administration, concluded that a lab leak was the most likely origin of COVID-19—an idea that had previously been dismissed as a conspiracy theory. Additionally, the Department of Energy and former FBI Director Christopher Wray in 2023 also pointed to evidence suggesting the virus originated from a lab.
The new COVID.gov website also revisits the controversial policies that shaped the pandemic response, like mask mandates and social distancing. One section addresses the six-foot social distancing guideline, which led to widespread school and business closures, stating that it was “arbitrary and not based on science.” The website references Dr. Fauci’s testimony, where he admitted the six-foot rule “sort of just appeared” during closed-door discussions.
When it comes to mask mandates, the site notes that there was no conclusive evidence proving masks were effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19. It also criticizes public health officials for shifting their messaging on masks without presenting solid scientific data, a move that, according to the website, “caused a massive uptick in public distrust.”
In a section titled “COVID-19 Misinformation,” the site condemns what it describes as misleading messaging from public health officials and the government throughout the pandemic. “Public health officials often misled the American people through conflicting messaging, knee-jerk reactions, and a lack of transparency,” the website states. It also accuses the federal government of demonizing alternative treatments and suppressing dissenting views, such as the lab leak theory, in what it calls a “shameful effort to coerce and control the American people’s health decisions.”
The site emphasizes that much of its content is sourced from the House Oversight Committee’s Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, adding weight to its claims of a systemic failure in handling the crisis.
This pivot from vaccine advocacy to addressing the origins of COVID-19 is a significant shift in messaging, and it’s clear that the administration is positioning itself as the advocate for transparency and truth in the ongoing conversation about the pandemic’s roots. Whether this move will change public perception remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the debate over the virus’s origins is far from over.
