REVEALED: Fauciās Record-High Salary for āVaccine Developmentā and Bio-Terror āResearchā
October 25, 2021
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauciās salary ā the highest of all federal employees ā was increased due to his work on vaccine development and bioterrorism research, internal U.S. government documents have laid bare.
Obtained by transparency group OpenTheBooks through a Freedom of Information Act request, a letter from then-National Institutes of Health (NIH) Deputy Director Raynard S. Kingston makes the case for Fauciās sizable pay increase.
Fauciās permanent pay raise was to āappropriately compensate him for the level of responsibilityā¦ especially as it relates to his work on biodefense research activities.ā
Kingston outlines the rationale behind proposing Fauciās salary increase, emphasizing how he āhas been a key figure in the White House and Departmentās response to bioterrorismā:
āMore recently, Dr. Fauci has been a key figure in the White House and Departmentās response to bioterrorism. His contributions to this effort have been outstanding and include the development of the departmental strategy to augment smallpox vaccine supplies and the development of a plan to develop new anthrax vaccine. He serves as an expert consultant to the White House, the Secretary of DHHS, congressional staff, and a number of HHS groups on the development of biodefense-related research, and public health priorities. He is leading the development of a series of research initiatives, has coordinated fast-track initiatives for academia and industry participation in biodefense-related research, and is responsible for the development of future intermediate and long-range research plans and policies for a sustained and committed biomedical research response to bioterrorism threats. During FY2004, under Dr. Fauciās leadership, NIAID significantly expanded, intensified, and accelerated its research programs in biodefense.ā
