Fauci, Collins and others at NIH accepted hundreds of millions of dollars in secret payments prior to the plandemic

(Natural News) Government watchdog non-profit Open the Books has discovered that more than $350 million in secret payments were funneled to Tony Fauci, Francis Collins, and other government workers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) between 2010 and 2020.
These “undisclosed royalties” were paid to hundreds of scientists at the government agency in the years leading up to the unleashing of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), we now know. What we do not yet know is what they were specifically for.
“We estimate that up to $350 million in royalties from third parties were paid to NIH scientists during the fiscal years between 2010 and 2020,” Open the Books head Adam Andrzejewski said during a recent telephone news conference on May 9.
“We draw that conclusion because, in the first five years, there has been $134 million that we have been able to quantify of top-line numbers that flowed from third-party payers, meaning pharmaceutical companies or other payers, to NIH scientists.”
About 40 percent of the payments were sent during the first five years while the other 60 percent came closer to the time of the plandemic.
“We now know that there are 1,675 scientists that received payments during that period, at least one payment,” Andrzejewski added. “In fiscal year 2014, for instance, $36 million was paid out and that is on average $21,100 per scientist.”
“We also find that during this period, leadership at NIH was involved in receiving third-party payments. For instance, Francis Collins, the immediate past director of NIH, received 14 payments. Dr. Anthony Fauci received 23 payments and his deputy, Clifford Lane, received eight payments.”
