Anthony Fauci, a specialist in The prevention of New Coronary Pneumonia (CCHS), is the highest paid federal employee in the country, and the latest data currently available show that his annual salary for 2019 is as high as $410,7608, even higher than former President Trump.
Fauci, 80, is not only the highest-paid physician in the federal government, but also the highest-paid federal employee annually.
During the new crown pneumonia Epidemic, Fauci became the representative of the White House epidemic prevention working group, becoming the main reason why his 2019 salary is higher than that of his colleagues.
Former Vice President Mike Pence’s annual salary was lower than Fauci’s that year, earning $235,100, while Deborah Birx, a member of the White House epidemic preparedness task force, earned $305,972.
Fauci’s salary even exceeded Trump’s $400,000. Trump did not actually accept the president’s salary, but issued checks equal to a quarter of his salary to various government units.
The nonprofit group OpenTheBooks.com obtained taxpayer-funded federal employee salary data through the Freedom of Information Act, in which the highest paid federal employees are medical and dental officials.
Forbes reported that in other government departments, Speaker of the House of Representatives Polosi is expected to have $223,500 in his pocket this year, while Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts is $270,700, Congressmen and Senators are paid $174,000, and four-star generals are paid $268,000 a year, all far less than Fauci.
Between 2010 and 2019, Fauci’s salary alone earned $3.6 million; with the 2014 salary moving up from $335,000 to $417,608.
Fauci remains the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), and with his current role as the president’s principal medical adviser, he could earn $2.5 million even without a raise from 2019 to 2024.
When Foch was interviewed by Oscar winner Matthew McConaughey last August, he was asked about his multi-million dollar investment in the research and development of a new crown vaccine; Foch laughed and replied, “Matthew, no, I didn’t get half a cent, I’m a public servant, I get a state salary.
