The National Institutes of Health said one of its public affairs staffers is retiring after he was exposed as the author of numerous anonymous blog posts in which he called the coronavirus pandemic a "massive fraud" and described National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci as a "mask nazi."

NIH employee William B. Crews was managing editor of the conservative blog RedState and wrote under the pseudonym "streiff," The Daily Beast first reported on Monday.

"NIAID learned yesterday (9/21) of the media issue raised about Mr. Crews, and he, subsequently, informed NIAID of his intention to retire. We have no further comment on this personnel matter," an NIAID spokesperson told Fox News.
