The government agency's stonewalling undermines integrity of regulatory system.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is being called on the carpet to explain why it gave tens of millions of dollars to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), a United Nations agency that has been accused of “quackery” and “cherry picking” its facts.
The NIH agreed to appear before Rep. Jason Chaffetz's House Oversight Committee — but only on the condition that the hearing is closed-press and off-limits to the public. We don't even know the exact date the hearing will be held.
