Original Note:
RFK Jr is confusing FDA (regulator) with NIH (research). FDA does not get payments for vaccine approval. Fauci is not named in mRNA patents owned by NIH, and won't get royalty payments. $150K per year is NIH limit on personal royalty on ALL inventions. https://www.techarp.com/facts/fauci-nih-150k-yearly-mrna-vaccine/ https://web.archive.org/web/20230307005503/https://www.niaid.nih.gov/research/anthony-s-fauci-md https://www.factcheck.org/2023/08/scicheck-conservative-posts-misrepresent-royalty-payments-to-fauci-and-collins/ https://www.factcheck.org/2023/08/scicheck-rfk-jr-s-covid-19-deceptions/ https://www.newsweek.com/robert-f-kennedy-jr-vaccines-covid-dr-fauci-i-read-science-1572688 https://apnews.com/article/rfk-kennedy-election-2024-president-campaign-621c9e9641381a1b2677df9de5a09731
