Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, recently, in reference to Atlas,"He keeps talking about things that when you dissect it out and parse it out, it doesn't make any sense." Similarly, Dr. Robert Redfield, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, was overheard saying in September that Atlas was spreading misinformation.
"Dr. Scott Atlas' resignation today is long overdue and underscores the triumph of science and truth over falsehoods and misinformation," scholars at Stanford University's medical school said in a statement last night. I wish I took more comfort in the celebration. The fact remains that Atlas never should have been put in this position in the first place, and his departure has little to do with his failures and profound misjudgments. Fox News'on the developments noted the radiologist's 130-day detail as a"special government employee" was set to expire this week, which apparently prompted his resignation.
It's heartening news, to be sure, but in the Trump White House, science and truth did not actually triumph over falsehoods and misinformation. Atlas, for all intents and purposes, got what he wanted: a federal response to a deadly pandemic in which the White House effectively stopped trying. The administration's response has been disastrous, and Atlas bears a fair amount of responsibility for the tragedy.
