Bioethicist of NIH fired, mainly because she's Dr. Fauci's wife slated to decide whether he is ethical

Christine Grady is a bioethicist at the National Institutes of Health. Her job is to analyze ethical issues in healthcare, medicine, and biological research. She also happens to be the wife of Dr. Anthony Fauci and would have been the person who decides whether his behavior regarding his COVID-19 recommendations and personal involvement with China was ethical.

Grady recently lost her position under the leadership of U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. which now signals new priorities with how things are going to get done. 

In the past, Grady supported firing nurses who declined the Covid vaccine, and now she apparently is receiving the same treatment she once supported.

Earlier this week, Grady was included in the mass layoffs at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of RFK Jr.'s more extensive overhaul at the NIH. The point of the layoffs is to move the institute’s focus away from pandemic preparedness and toward more pressing issues. 

She was reportedly offered a reassignment to regional offices of the Indian Health Service, which serves American Indians and Alaska Natives, but declined the opportunity, possibly to raise a public issue with the administration.

An NIH official told the Daily Caller News Foundation that Grady was “a good person with a major conflict of interest.” Gee, ya think?

“One of the problems when the coverup was going on of the Wuhan lab leak, that whole fiasco, was that they were not listening to anyone giving ethics advice,” the anonymous official said. “If they had had someone at the table with knowledge of this, they would have said: ‘Hey, do you want to play it this way, or be more transparent?’ Someone could have raised the question.”

The official stated that Grady was restricted from performing specific duties due to her marriage to Fauci.

Fauci and Grady's combined net worth exceeded $11 million, with an increase of over $7 million since the onset of the pandemic for some strange reason. 

This week’s layoffs impacted at least 10,000 individuals.

NIH and CDC hemorrhaging top staff too embarrassed to work for them

It isn't the janitors and secretaries who are leaving the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in droves, it's their top health experts. They are leaving precisely because they are experts and are embarrassed by the "bad science" to which they are having to give a stamp of approval, including the COVID vaccinating of children under the age of 5 to make their advice acceptable to the current shysters in the White House.

The morale among the scientists in these agencies understandably suck. 

Both agencies are suffering due to poor decisions the leadership has made, says Dr. Marty Makary, a top health expert at Johns Hopkins University [Go Beaker Boilers!] in Common Sense.

These unscientific decisions include such things as masking in schools, closures in schools during the pandemic, and authorization of the COVID-19 vaccines for kids four and younger, when it is statistically known that children are the least at risk for contracting the disease, spreading it, and being in danger from it.

Both agencies, along with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have been up to their lips in controversy throughout the pandemic for inconsistent messaging and for decision making that did not seen to line up with available science. [See also Drs. Anthony Fauci and Jill Biden.]

'They have no leadership right now. Suddenly there's an enormous number of jobs opening up at the highest level positions,' an NIH scientist who asked to remain anonymous due to their worry over being doxxed, "peacefully" protested against, and fired,  told the Substack publication run by former New York Times columnist Bari Weiss.

Schools, and the cowardly, useless, National Teachers Union became the first real battleground of the COVID-19 pandemic in America. The terrible effects shutdowns created for the nation's children and others were, and still are, horrific. It has reached a point where even teachers, lawyers, and even some Supreme Court justices cannot define the word "woman," and many have become so confused from the shutdowns that they believe men can have babies.

Babylon Bee's "Man of the Year" claims pediatricians "all" agree on importance of 'gender-affirming care' for kids

He was called "Woman of the Year" by Time magazine, and "Man of the Year" by the Babylon Bee, but one thing is for certain, Rachel Levine puts the "rear" in Rear Admiral and is the nation's highest-ranking man with gender dysphoria.

Rear Admiral Levine claimed in an interview with NPR that "there is no argument" about "gender-affirming care" among pediatricians and doctors who specialize in adolescents. He can make that claim now because the Left is trying to install a Ministry of Truth as a weapon of the DHS to fight opposing opinions. 

A conflicting statement sure to make waves with Nina Jankowicz who will head the Ministry of Truth, when she isn't on TikTok doing a Scarry Poppins routine, would be that Levine hadn't really done a consensus with "all" pediatricians and doctors who specialize with adolescents. And to call it "gender-affirming care" is like calling Col. Gen. Mikhail Mizintsev [aka the butcher of Mariupol] a surgeon. 

Levine spoke Saturday at Texas Christian University where he blamed the high rate of suicidal ideation among gender dysphoric youth in part on "harassment, scapegoating and intentional abuse." This idea is a myth that was created to serve the agenda of gender mutilating advocates.

In a 2019 study by the National Institute of Health (NIH) examining suicidality in adolescents the conclusion was that despite supportive family and contacts, the expression of dissatisfaction with appearance was notable.

"It has been found that among transgender youth, a significantly greater proportion of those who had attempted suicide expressed weight-related body dissatisfaction than those who had not. They also had a higher rate of negative assessment by others of appearance. More recently, another study confirmed a significant correlation between suicidality and a desire for weight change among adolescents with gender dysphoria. There has long been a natural association between body dissatisfaction and gender dysphoria; however, these reports and this case highlight the importance of assessing the degree and characterization of body dissatisfaction as they may contribute to suicidal risk."

The cause of suicidality was not found to be related to "harassment, scapegoating and intentional abuse," as Rachel Levine claimed. It was generally related to body image issues.

"The language of medicine and science is being used to drive people to suicide," the Bee's "Man of the Year" also claimed untruthfully.

"There is no argument among medical professionals – pediatricians, pediatric endocrinologists, adolescent medicine physicians, adolescent psychiatrists, psychologists, etc. – about the value and the importance of gender-affirming care," Levine told NPR, using polysyllabic words to impress the uninformed.

See, cutting off a guy's twig and berries, and a female's breasts, tend to come back later to depress many of them and they regret their decision made in their youthful naivety.

Old Doc Fauci 'caught lying' to Congress after book exposes details of Wuhab Lab-linked grant

Dr. Anthony Fauci heads the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and Congress is currently reacting to reports that he initially resisted a Trump-era order to cancel an NIH grant to EcoHealth Alliance linked to the Wuhan Institute of Virology [where the coronavirus likely originated] in April 2020.

EcoHealth Alliance is a nonprofit conducting research on coronaviruses and they had previously worked with the Wuhan lab, the place where a number of experts agree the pandemic virus originated from. Fauci later "reluctantly agreed" after learning then-President Trump was directly behind the order, according to an upcoming book by Washington Post reporters Yasmeen Abutaleb and Damian Paletta.

[H/T Fox News]

In their book titled, "Nightmare Scenario: Inside the Trump Administration's Response to the Pandemic That Changed History," Abutaleb and Paletta provide a behind-the-scenes account of how Old Doc Fauci and his colleagues at the NIH responded to the White House’s directive.

In June 2020, however, Fauci said the grant, worth a remaining $370,000, was "canceled because the NIH was told to cancel it," and he didn't "know the reason" behind the White House's order during a House Energy and Commerce hearing after Rep. Marc Veasey (D-TX), asked why the Trump administration cut off NIH funding for EcoHealth.

Lawmakers on the House Energy and Commerce Committee are now reacting to the book excerpt in comparison to Fauci's June 2020 comments before Congress and are repeating calls for an investigation into the virus's origins and Fauci's firing. Imagine that--Fauci lied.

Fauci did not immediately respond to inquiries from Fox News nor from Brain Flushings.

"Dr. Fauci is so obsessed with maintaining his own relevance and downplaying President Trump’s role in combatting this crisis that he’s once again been caught lying," Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA), told the outlet. "We need someone leading the pandemic response and our investigation into its origins who is more concerned with the truth than their own PR campaign. It’s time for Dr. Fauci to go."

House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA), said "there are many unanswered questions that can only be answered with a full investigation by Congress."

The truth is, if Fauci is somehow directly involved in the spread of the COVID-19 virus, he needs to be prosecuted criminally. 

"It is perplexing that [House Speaker] Nancy ["Frenetic Hands"] Pelosi refuses to allow any formal investigation into the origins of COVID," he said, adding that "without a real complete and transparent investigation…we have not been able to get the answers the American people deserve," but Congress "will not stop working to get the facts."

Scalise and more than 200 House Republicans have called on Pelosi to direct committee chairs to investigate the origins of the virus and devote congressional investigatory resources to examining claims that the novel coronavirus pandemic stemmed from a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology which the Chinese Communist Party "covered" up.

Yeah, yah think?

Rep. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), said the discrepancies between Fauci's hearing comments and the book excerpt "very concerning,"  and saying it "goes to show just how important it is to have full investigation into the origins of COVID-19."

"We owe it to the American people to find answers about how the pandemic happened and what Dr. Fauci knew and when he knew it," he said.

Rep. Michael Burgess (R-TX), said he became concerned about early reports of COVID-19 when it was being described as a new respiratory virus in December of 2019, and in February of 2020, he "called on Energy and Commerce Committee Democrats to hold hearings to ensure that America was prepared if the virus came to our shores, and that we understood exactly of how this virus originated."

He added, however, that "committee Democrats … lacked the curiosity," for some strange reason.

The NIH’s decision to fund research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology is an ongoing point of contention between Fauci and several Republican lawmakers. 

Something smells Fauci.
