Patients who took part in clinical trials at the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) had no idea that scientists at the institutes received $8.9m (£4.8m; €6.8m) in royalty payments and might benefit financially for the use of their discoveries by pharmaceutical companies and device makers, reports from Associated Press allege. This information was not made public until the press agency obtained the information after filing a request under the Freedom of Information Act.

You know, I despise Fauci as much as anyone, but your headline said this...

Yet your quote left out this...

No, there shouldn't have been royalty payments at all, and he shouldn't have received any. But you don't have to resort to blatant dishonesty and misrepresentation to make Fauci look bad. He's an idiot and an attention whore...yet you're the one coming off as dishonest here.

Because he was required by law to accept it and then turned around and gave it all to charity...which he didn't have to do?

Congrats. In a discussion thread about Fauci...who's a moron and a publicity whore...you manage to come across like the village idiot. That's no small accomplishment.

Next time, do yourself a favor. Actually read the fricking article rather than just what some dumbass OP posts.

Guys like Fauci don’t really care about money. They want power.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Let's see some tax returns. Did he a) make the charitable donation as described b)if a; then to whom did he donate c) if a and b are known; then did he use the donation to lower his taxes thus negating the "charity" of the donation?

What's strange to me is Moderna developed their vaccine in conjunction with the NIH. Why, then, are they taking payments from Pfizer? Moderna should be pissed.
