So is her husband, who we now know has been taking taxpayer money in the form of government "grants" for his pharmaceutical company.

Loren D. Walensky is reportedly a "renowned pediatric oncology researcher" at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at Harvard University. He is also, as of October 2019, a member of the Board of Directors at Lytica Therapeutics, "an early-stage biotechnology company working on an innovative platform for developing next-generation antimicrobials."

Roughly four months after Loren was installed as a member of Lytica's board, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) under Donald Trump awarded the company a $16.9 million grant to "develop antibacterial peptides with broad activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria."

"Only $5.3 million of that money was initially disbursed to Lytica, and the remaining $11.6 million is scheduled to be disbursed upon the achievement of 'certain development milestones,'" reports Red State.

Where that $11.6 million ended up is an anomaly. To this day, Lytica has only taken in $5.3 million, which in and of itself is questionable because government agencies do not usually give grant money to companies like Lytica that — at the time — existed for less than a year and had no other stream of funding.
