'They sent it redacted' RandPaul confronts COVID-19-infected Dr. Fauci over royalty payments and boosters in hearing rematch
Appearing via video while in isolation, the federal government's top infectious disease expert fielded pointed questions from the Kentucky senator about the transparency in the National Institutes of Health in an exchange Thursday that quickly grew heated.“Over the period of time from 2010 to 2016, 27,000, royalty payments were paid to 18,000 NIH employees. We know that not because you told us, but because we forced you to tell us through the Freedom of Information Act,” Paul said.
“So let me give you some example, from 2015 to 2020, the only royalties I have was my lab and I made a monoclonal antibody for use in vitro reagent that had nothing to do with patients. And during that period of time, my royalties ranged from $21 a year, to $7,700. And the average per year was $191.46," Fauci said.
Paul kept peppering the doctor with questions on royalties, insisting"it's all redacted," but was ultimately cut off by Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee Chair Sen. Patty Murray because he went over his allotted time. "If I give you 10 or if I give a patient 10 mRNA vaccines and they make protein each time or they make an amount each time is that proof that we should give 10 boosters," Paul asked.
