Watchdog group finds estimated $350 million in royalty payments from drug companies to NIH officials, opposes releasing records

A watchdog group has found an estimated $350 million in royalty payments to NIH bigwigs like Fauci. 

And interestingly, that's not the most outrageous aspect of the story, which is that the NIH is stonewalling, refusing to disclose what are supposed to be (or should be) public records.

Yep, the agency has dragged its feet about releasing documents, and has so far only released the figures up to 2015.  For Democrats, the suspected multi-hundred-million-dollar "royalties" paid by Pfizer and others to Fauci et al after the Chyna virus hit wouldn't have happened until mid-2020 or after.

Like the FDA refusing to release Pfizer records on their trials of that company's experimental jab until 2075, the NIH is simply refusing to release records on royalty payments.

Gosh, if the NIH has nothing to hide, why stonewall the release of the records of payments from drug companies to NIH officials and researchers, eh?

It's a mystery.
