Another $37 million was paid two years ago.
Money from Congress.
The Department of Health & Human Services (DHH), a federal agency, paid the grants.
Texas Biomed does Pfizer’s COVID-19 research using primates instead of humans.
Primates used in their studies were immune to COVID-19.
Pfizer failed to disclose that information to the FDA and people before they got their experimental COVID-19 shots.
The FDA is the Food & Drug Administration, a non-government pharmaceutical business.
