An April 2024 report by the Biodefense Commission think tank detailed a simulation where terrorists release a virus in Washington, D.C., and other U.S. cities, that kills hundreds of thousands of Americans on July 4, 2025.
The report by the commission, chaired by former Sen. Joseph Lieberman (D-Conn.), envisioned a hypothetical scenario where a deadly genetically-modified Nipah virus attack launched on Independence Day wipes out 280,000 Americans, including legislators, with similar attacks in the following days killing scores across the globe.
The fictional simulation is framed in a hindsight perspective, featuring a congressional joint committee chair chastising legislators in opening remarks for failing to take up the recommendations of the Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense in the months leading up to the devastating bio-terror event.
Here’s the part of the report (see full report below) where a fictional congressional joint committee chair details the virus’ destruction, the government’s failures, and the need to prepare for and prevent additional attacks.
JOINT INQUIRY INTO ADMINISTRATION AND CONGRESSIONAL ACTIONS BEFORE AND DURING THE BIOTERRORIST ATTACKS OF JULY 4, 2025
US HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES PERMANENT SELECT COMMITTEE ON INTELLIGENCE AND US SENATE SELECT COMMITTEE ON INTELLIGENCECHAIR: I call this first hearing of the Joint Inquiry to order. Nine weeks ago, some nation or terrorist group—we still do not know who—attacked the Nation’s Capital and other US cities with biological weapons as we celebrated Independence Day. The infectious agent they used killed at least 280,000 Americans and infected at least 400,000 throughout the country in a single day, in addition to the 200,000 dead and 800,000 sickened animals. These numbers will increase as the disease spreads. Many of our own colleagues and staff here in Congress fell ill and died. Coordinated attacks in allied nations in the days that followed killed tens of thousands more.
We are now hearing that the terrorists conducted smaller scale attacks in American cities and localities prior to the July 4 incidents to test our defenses and gauge our responses. These smaller-scale attacks went largely unnoticed.
Laboratory tests confirm that Nipah virus caused the disease, but we still do not know what methods our adversaries used to infect humans and spread the disease among livestock in rural communities.
Animals and people were sick for more than a month before we realized what had happened. While the virus is in the same family as other common human and animal viruses, most American veterinarians and physicians had never seen Nipah virus before, which delayed recognition. The virus, which in nature does not spread easily among people, was genetically modified to increase its ability to spread from animal-to-animal, animal-to-person, and person-to-person, while still retaining a mortality rate of over 40%.
For years before this, many experts said that although nation states and terrorist organizations aspired to use biological weapons, they lacked the leadership, organizational wherewithal, infrastructure, expertise, and social support to develop and deploy them.
Despite these assessments, our adversaries conducted the deadly biological attacks of July 4 here and throughout the world. They took advantage of
- our failure to eliminate the vulnerabilities revealed during the COVID-19 pandemic;
- our failure to conduct sufficient biological intelligence activities to indicate an imminent attack;
- our failure to achieve early detection of the biological agent and our failure to identify the source of exposure in a timely way;
- our failure to rapidly identify and recognize its occurrence in livestock;
- our failure to rapidly identify the disease in people;
- our failure to consistently fund public health and health care preparedness;
- our failure to stockpile sufficient medical countermeasures; and
- our failure to communicate effectively within the government, to our allies, and most importantly, to the American people.
Ultimately, our adversaries took advantage of our failure to make biodefense a top national priority. It is especially painful to me and the other leaders of committees throughout Congress that we failed in our duty to gather the necessary information and data, connect the dots, produce intelligence, and prevent and attribute these attacks.
Sadly, much as the 9/11 Commission observed in its analysis of the attacks of 2001, the attacks of 2025 can be ascribed to failures to heed many warnings and commit to preventing biological events from affecting our national security.
There were failures of prediction, early warning, and detection:
- the diplomatic, intelligence, law enforcement, and military communities failed to discover intent and provide advanced warning of well-planned and direct attacks on the United States and its interests overseas; and
- the Department of Agriculture, Department of Defense, Department of Health and Human Services, and Department of Homeland Security failed to detect the biological agent upon release.
There were, and continue to be, failures to respond effectively:
- the Department of Agriculture and Department of Health and Human Services still have no way to prevent additional infections, treat exposed people and animals effectively, thwart the establishment of pathogens in new reservoirs, or prevent the disease from becoming permanently established in the United States; and
- the Department of Agriculture, Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Health and Human Services, and Department of Justice failed in their initial efforts at attribution.
As I speak, critical infrastructure owners and operators and emergency service providers are struggling valiantly to do their jobs while keeping their own families safe in the absence of adequate protection. Our military is splitting resources to help with domestic response and overseas operations, and the Intelligence Community is spread thin trying to prevent our enemies from taking further advantage of our vulnerabilities to biological and other threats.
Our national leadership at all levels—federal and non-federal—failed to heed the advice of the 9/11 Commission, the Weapons of Mass Destruction Commission, the Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense, and many other experts who warned of the dangers of biological terrorism and warfare. They failed to appreciate the gravity of the biological threat, generate political will, and take action in the face of looming danger, even when COVID-19 demonstrated how severe a biological threat could be.
We are convening this hearing today to discover exactly what happened, how this leadership failure occurred, and what our Nation must do to recover from these attacks. We also intend to determine what it will take to prevent additional attacks and ensure our country has done all it can to be prepared for the next biological event in case these efforts fall short.
Over the next three weeks, this Joint Inquiry will hear from the Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense, Attorney General, and Director of National Intelligence to explain why they missed indications of the impending use of biological weapons and why we still do not have a biodefense attribution apparatus in place of the same caliber as we have for nuclear attribution.
Second, we will hear from the Secretary of Agriculture, Secretary of Health and Human Services, and Secretary of Homeland Security to explain why (after COVID-19 and other biological events affected our Nation previously) their extraordinary challenges in surveillance, detection, identification, response, recovery, and mitigation persist.
Third, we will hear from academics, the Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense, and other nongovernmental groups that issued warnings previously, to better understand the recommendations they issued and where the Nation and the world stood in implementing those recommendations before these events occurred.
The Ranking Member and I have discussed these bioterrorist attacks at great length. Let me assure the American people that while our political ideologies may differ, we agree that this Committee will fully investigate what happened, seek to identify the adversaries responsible for this outrage, and hold the Administration and Congress (including ourselves) accountable for failing to prevent and prepare adequately for these events and their consequences. Today’s hearing will certainly not be our last.
The Chair now recognizes the Ranking Member of the Committee for an opening statement.
“The scenario describes how a biological agent could target humans and animals, how disease could emerge, some of the key interagency capabilities required to address the agent and its impacts, and the consequences of failure,” the report states.
While the report ostensibly urges the government to take biological threats seriously, others warn the scenario may represent a premonition of things to come.
McCullough Foundation Administrator Nicolas Hulscher wrote:
Like Event 201 just before COVID-19, this simulation appears to represent strategic planning informed by foreknowledge of an impending crisis—laying the policy and infrastructure groundwork for future emergency powers, AI-driven surveillance, and accelerated “vaccine” deployment. The report explicitly calls for centralizing national biodefense authority under the National Security Council, establishing a permanent White House directorate, and replacing decentralized detection systems with a unified, technology-driven infrastructure.
The report comes as many, including Bill Gates, Anthony Fauci, and Peter Hotez, have warned of a potential future pandemic in the wake of D.O.G.E. cuts to numerous federal agencies.
