Critics of Dr. Anthony Fauci — the government’s top infectious-disease adviser — hint that he profited from the COVID-19 pandemic. Without evidence, they’ve raised questions about whether Fauci made any stock trades based on advance warning he had of the coronavirus threat.
Those suspicions led to this testy exchange between Fauci, and Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., at a Jan. 11 Senate hearing.
Marshall: "Yes or no. Would you be willing to submit to Congress and the public a financial disclosure that includes your past and current investments? After all, your colleague Dr. (Rochelle) Walensky (the CDC director) and every member of Congress submits a financial disclosure that includes their investments."
Fauci: "I don't understand why you're asking me that question. My financial disclosure is public knowledge and has been so for the last 37 years or so."
Marshall: "The big tech giants are doing an incredible job of keeping it from being public. We'll continue to look for it. Where would we find it?"
