Summary: A collection of declassified internal communications from the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC) dated 2020-2021, released by DNI Tulsi Gabbard in June 2026, detailing discussions on COVID-19 origins, gain-of-function research, and the vetting of external reviewers for intelligence assessments.
This document contains a series of declassified email exchanges within the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC) from 2020 and 2021. The correspondence focuses on the origins of SARS-CoV-2, specifically debating the possibility of laboratory-acquired infections (LAI) versus natural origins. Key discussions include the evaluation of 'gain-of-function' (GOF) research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, the skepticism regarding specific reports (such as the 'Yan report'), and the internal process of selecting external experts to review IC assessments on COVID-19. The emails highlight internal debates over the credibility of various scientific claims, the potential for conflicts of interest among proposed reviewers, and the coordination between different intelligence and defense agencies, including the NIC, CIA, and State Department, regarding the pandemic's origins.
