Not only that, the deputy director of the Wuhan lab, a radical communist institute, told NIH in 2011 that there were no regulations over gain-of-function research.
Dr. Collins spoke with radio host Hugh Hewitt yesterday and admitted the U.S. collaborated with the Wuhan lab:
Well, we, when we give a grant, Hugh, it has terms attached to it of what it is that the grantee is supposed to be doing with those funds. And we require annual reports to see whether that in fact is what they have been doing. And we trust the grantee to be honest and not deceptive.

And so, we basically had those criteria attached to the grant. And of course, the amount of money that we were providing to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, I’m sure, was a tiny fraction of their total funding. And we had no control over what else they were doing with those funds. That’s another thing we’d like to know more about, and an investigation might potentially tell us.
Collins also admitted that the Chinese Communist Party is involved in the Wuhan lab, but played down their influence. They had to know what the National Pulse reporter easily discovered — the lab is radically committed to the communist party agenda (see below).
When asked if the NIH would collaborate with other human rights abusers and tyrannies such as North Korea, Dr. Collins replied, “Probably not.” He then said...
