Exhibit 942 · Inspector general report

The National Institutes of Health and EcoHealth Alliance Did Not Effectively Monitor Awards and Subawards, Resulting in Missed Opportunities to Oversee Research and Other Deficiencies (A-05-21-00025)

NIH did not effectively monitor or take timely action to address EcoHealth’s compliance with some requirements.

Audit of three NIH awards to EcoHealth Alliance totaling about $8.0 million, including $1.8 million in EcoHealth subawards to eight subrecipients such as the Wuhan Institute of Virology. OIG found that NIH acted on a progress report nearly two years late, that EcoHealth did not publicly report required subaward data, and that EcoHealth claimed $89,171 in unallowable costs. It also found that the Wuhan Institute's lack of cooperation after the COVID-19 outbreak limited EcoHealth's monitoring.
