However, in January this year, the disclosure of Fauci's finances raised a lot of questions about the sources of his wealth. 

During the pandemic year of 2020, their household income, perks and benefits, and unrealized gains totaled $1,776,479, including $868,812 in federal income and benefits, $113,298 in outside royalties and travel perks, and $794,369 in investment accounts.

The financial disclosures contain a plethora of previously unknown data. The Fauci family's net worth exceeds $10.4 million.

He has also been accused several times of being involved in a conspiracy that he was aware of the Coronavirus' point of origin, as per a Congress document. 

Last June, the NIAID paid $9.8 million to government researchers last year to develop a treatment for Monkeypox, according to the National Pulse.
