"As it relates to chloroquine, it was Dr. Bright who requested an Emergency Use Authorization from the Food and Drug Administration for donations of chloroquine that Bayer and Sandoz recently made to the Strategic National Stockpile for use on COVID-19 patients," spokesperson Caitlin Oakley said. "The EUA is what made the donated product available for use in combating COVID-19."
So the guy has been moved to NIH to head up point-of-care testing which Fauci said, when asked, is critical. Fauci also refused to suggest where Bright's "gifts" (reporter's term) are best suited, at BARDA or over at NIH in the new capacity. Bright's been at BARDA since 2010.
