This is a prime example of "Of course the Trump Administration likes ignorance. Why do you ask?"
On April 24, the NIH abruptly terminated a grant to the EcoHealth Alliance for a project under the direction of Dr. Peter Daszak.
The project involves research on coronaviruses and other infectious agents, focusing on the transmission of these viruses from animal hosts to human beings.
This work depends on collaborations with scientists in other countries, including scientists in Wuhan, China, where the current pandemic caused by a novel coronavirus arose. It is difficult to imagine more important and timely research.
The grant termination has been protested via a letter submitted by 31 national scientific organizations and another letter signed by 77 American Nobel Laureates in Physiology or Medicine, Chemistry, and Physics.
I have attached both letters as a single file and uploaded them here:

If you still support Trump, you support intentional ignorance.
