If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times — ‘Follow the money.’ Especially in the last few decades, if you want to know the motivation behind what OUR government does to us — and to enrich themselves — just ‘follow the money.’
Adam Andrzejewski, who works for government (“federal, state, and local”) spending watchdog OpenTheBooks.com, wrote an article for the New York Post that came out on Sunday, in which he reported that through legal pressure, “New data from the the National Institutes of Health [NIH] reveal the agency and its scientists collected $710 million in royalties during the pandemic, from late 2021 through 2023.”
And they did all of this allegedly hoping to maintain the secrecy of the financial windfall.
According to the article:
Almost all that cash — $690 million — went to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases[NIAID], the subagency led by Dr. Anthony Fauci, and 260 of its scientists.[…]
Payments skyrocketed during the pandemic era: Those years saw more than double the amount of cash flow to NIH from the private sector, compared to the prior 12 combined. All told, it’s $1.036 billion.
It’s unclear if any of the COVID vaccine royalties from Pfizer and Moderna, the latter of which settled with NIH by agreeing to pay $400 million, is even included in these new numbers. NIH isn’t saying.
One of the “conspiracy theories” that I maintain until this day is that the COVID-19 pandemic was, at least in part, used to facilitate one of the largest transfers of wealth in human history.

In September of 2023, CBS Austin reported on Fauci and his wife’s net worth, ironically quoting Andrezejewski.
“So at the end of 2021, certainly within the pandemic, the Fauci net worth approached $12.6 million, up from $7.6 million. So it was a sharp $5 million increase in their household net worth during the pandemic,” Andrezejewski told The National Desk. “Now last year because of the weakness in the stock markets to focus on a household basis, didn't take $8 million haircut, their net worth ended 2022 at at $11.5 million. It's still a lot of money.”
That’s merely what’s being reported. Who knows what else the “good doctor” has been up to? I’m TOTALLY not making any accusations, but stranger things, right?
As reported above, over $1 billion of taxpayer wealth was transferred to the NIH alone. And, if $710 were from royalties, can you imagine how much money Big Pharma drained from the lifeblood of Americans and people all over the world?
The truth of the actual amounts has to be staggering to the point that it would disgust all of us if we knew. Heck, the fact that the NIH received $710 million “in royalties” should be enough to make anyone’s blood boil.
