Video Transcript AI Summary
The speaker questions the lack of transparency regarding the sharing of royalties by officials at the CDC, NIH, and FDA who are responsible for approving drugs and vaccines. They mention that Congress needs to enforce full disclosure to eliminate conflicts of interest. The speaker reveals that NIH researchers have received significant amounts of money, but the details are not disclosed. They also highlight their unsuccessful attempts to obtain nonclassified records of NIH grants. The lack of action from the Department of Justice and Democrats further complicates the situation.
Speaker 0: It's sort of shocking if the public would really understand that people in the CDC, the NIH, and the FDA share in royalties for drugs that they are in charge of approving and disapproving competitors potentially. Is there a way that congress we don't even have full disclosure. Through the NIH does not, reveal the details of, say, for instance, doctor Fauci's sharing of royalties. What is congress doing or what can they do to force sort of full disclosure and eliminate those royalty sharing conflicts?
Speaker 1: Well, I asked Tony Fauci this directly in committee. Did anybody on the committees that approved the vaccines actually receive royalties from the companies that manufacture the vaccines? This should be the basic sub conflict of interest that should be revealed. And he basically told me it was none of my business, which by extension means that he believes it's none of the public's business. Open records and FOIA requests have gone in, and we have discovered that it's not an insignificant amount of people.
1,000 of NIH researchers have received 1,000,000 of dollars. I think one tally was 3,000 scientists, a $193,000,000, but they will not reveal which scientists got the money, how much and from whom. And so I've asked directly, you know, if you're on the committee approving of a vaccine, wouldn't you have to reveal if you got royalties from Pfizer Who manufactures the vaccine or Moderna, and they won't reveal this. They point to a law from the 19 eighties, the Birch Dole law. But my staff has read that law, and their interpretation of law is there is no restriction.
But we're at an impasse without a Department of Justice that will do anything without Democrats. And while you You have to realize, I've been trying for 3 years to get nonclassified records of NIH grants revealed to me by my own government, and they've refused steadfastly. And Democrats have refused to step up to sign letters.
