I'm surprised we're still expected to pretend the CDC is legitimately pro-America after it was purchased by donations to the CDC 501c3 (Bill Gates, George Soros, Pfizer et. al), and has lied to the public, denied them medical treatment, mandates damaging Remdesivir and ventilators, ignores shocking numbers of deaths and maiming injuries from the 'vaccine' while freely enacting unconstitutional mandates to work to destroy the economy and with it, America and freedom. How could anyone trust the treasonous, murderous CDC or any who work for them?
That researcher stated his conflict of interest because it IS a conflict of interest for him to be reliant on federal funds and serving the purposes of the hand that feeds him. He can't afford to displease the CDC or any part of the Biden Regime's medical militia; he has to know they will destroy him if he criticizes them and fund him if his work supports them.
I'm just surprised to see some still trying to keep the pretense of a benevolent CDC alive. That ship sank long ago.
The scientists involved in the Kaiser study are involved in a plethora of projects...some of which are supported by the Centers for Disease Control, some have received funding for projects from pharmaceutical corporations who are interested in the research they're engaged in.
The disclosures are made so the folks reviewing their work are aware of potential bias, not as some admission of conflict.
This is how honest people with integrity operate, which may explain why you're so unfamiliar with it.
There’s a lot of money at stake for the CDC:
“ SEC. 2302. FUNDING FOR VACCINE CONFIDENCE ACTIVITIES.
In addition to amounts otherwise available, there is appropriated
to the Secretary for fiscal year 2021, out of any money in the Treasury
not otherwise appropriated, $1,000,000,000, to remain available until
expended, to carry out activities, acting through the Director of the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention—
(1) to strengthen vaccine confidence in the United States,
including its territories and possessions;
(2) to provide further information and education with respect
to vaccines licensed under section 351 of the Public Health Service
Act (42 U.S.C. 262) or authorized under section 564 of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 360bbb-3); and
(3) to improve rates of vaccination throughout the United
States, including its territories and possessions, including
through activities described in section 313 of the Public Health
Service Act, as amended by section 311 of division BB of the
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (Public Law 116-260).”
