A doctor who recently led an agency inside the Department of Health of Human Services (HHS) filed a whistleblower complaint on Tuesday alleging leadership in the agency retaliated against him for voicing concerns about the response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Dr. Rick Bright recently headed HHS’ Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority. The office is involved in developing a vaccine and analyzing possible treatments for COVID-19, a disease caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.
Bright was shifted to another agency last month. Bright said the transfer “was in response to my insistence that the government invest the billions of dollars allocated by Congress to address the COVID-19 pandemic into safe and scientifically vetted solutions, and not in drugs, vaccines, and other technologies that lack scientific merit.”
In the new complaint (pdf), Bright’s legal team said Bright objected to the promotion of hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine for treatment of COVID-19.
