(13,225 posts)These are just some of the allegations contained in a blistering, 63-page complaint that Dr. Rick Bright, former head of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), filed today with the U.S. Office of Special Counsel. (Vanity Fair has submitted requests for comment to the White House, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Department of Health and Human Services, and will update this article with any responses.)
Todays complaint goes much further, enumerating a series of instances in which politics encroached on science. According to the complaint, Brights superiors at the Department of Health and Human Services began pressuring him to ignore expert recommendations and instead to award lucrative contracts based on political connections and cronyism, starting around the spring of 2017. Bright says he repeatedly clashed with his boss, Dr. Robert Kadlec, the assistant secretary for preparedness and response, over the outsized role played by Kadlecs friend John Clerici, a pharmaceutical consultant. That year Clerici tried to get Bright to renew a contract with his client, Aeolus Pharmaceuticals, that was set to expire. In attempting to justify the extension of this failed contract, Bright says in his complaint, Mr. Clerici emphasized that Aeoluss Chief Executive Officer was a wildcard and a friend of Jared Kushner, President Trumps son-in-law and a Senior Advisor to the President.
