Newly released unredacted documents reveal third-party royalties paid to NIH scientists, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, before, during, and after the pandemic. These new findings raise more questions about Fauci's statements to congressional lawmakers.
The transparency watchdog OpenTheBooks released more than 1,500 pages of records revealing that NIH leadership and thousands of scientists personally received royalty payments from companies licensing their inventions that were made with taxpayer money.NIH leadership, including Fauci, claimed while testifying before Congress that they could not release the names of the companies paying the NIH third-party royalties.
In Senate hearings in 2022, Sen. Rand Paul grilled Fauci on his NIH royalty payments, and he declined to answer questions. The immunologist deflected by suggesting that he"didn't understand" what the senator was saying. He added,"It was about allowing for scrutiny of these records for potential conflicts of interest, public health implications, and even national security implications for all of us. Every American should understand the stakes in play when public health guidance is released by the federal government."
