'I'm amazed that I'm being attacked on a personal basis in a way that, frankly, distracts my energy and energy of all the teams that we're working together with.' Operation Warp Speed adviser says media criticism slows the coronavirus fight.
Critical media reporting about Operation Warp Speed, the federal government's effort to speed development of drugs, vaccines and other measures to fight the coronavirus pandemic, is distracting people working on the project, its chief adviser says.
Former pharma executive Dr. Moncef Slaoui, chief adviser to Operation Warp Speed, complained on a US Health and Human Services Department podcast that he never expected to encounter what he considers unfavorable media coverage.
Slaoui indicated he continues to refuse to sell his shares in Glaxo."Any accretion in value of everything I own that has anything to do with Covid, which is my GlaxoSmithKline shares, any accretion in value by the end of my mission will look -- if there has been increasing value with it -- I'll sell those shares, and I'll give that incremental value to the NIH for research," Slaoui said.Operation Warp Speed awarded Glaxo and its partner Sanofi Pasteur $2.
