Summary

HHS COVID-19 Origin Transparency Act of 2023

This bill requires the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to publish all its information about the COVID-19 outbreak and related research, including previously unreleased information. HHS must report to Congress on any relevant information that it withholds from publication due to security concerns.
