Trump administration replaces COVID websites, takes down COVID signage

The Trump administration has moved to take down COVID-19 signage from federal agencies and replace websites that had previously offered health information and access to tests and treatment for the virus, swapping them out with a page titled "Lab Leak: The True Origins of COVID-19" published by the White House.

For the past two years, the Department of Health and Human Services had run the COVID.gov and COVIDTests.gov websites to link to resources about the virus, like finding vaccines and ordering free tests offered during the winter.

Those HHS websites have now been replaced, redirecting to the White House page, which cites information from the Republican-led Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic's report last year.
