Trump's new official advisor is providing misleading information; claims reports

Discussions amidst Presidential election is quite high in the USA. Two senior US public health experts have inflated concerns that White House adviser Scott Atlas is providing misleading or false information on the coronavirus pandemic to President Donald Trump, as per the media reports on Monday. The top US infectious diseases expert, Anthony Fauci, told a leading daily that he was concerned about the information given by Atlas - a late addition to the White House coronavirus task force - was “really taken either out of context or actually incorrect.”

The comments from Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, came hours after a news report quoted Robert Redfield, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, sharing similar concerns. “Everything he says is false,” Redfield was quoted as saying during a Friday telephone call while on a plane from Atlanta to Washington, daily reported. Redfield later told a leading daily that he was speaking about Atlas.

Atlas, a neuroradiologist with no background in infectious diseases, has faced investigation for downplaying the importance of face masks and his reported views on “herd immunity,” an approach that holds that once enough individuals have been infected and become immune, others are less likely to be infected. The White House insists it is not pursuing such a strategy, although Trump has mentioned it himself, and repeated on Monday his view that the United States was “rounding the corner” on the pandemic. Atlas’ views on controlling the pandemic have been criticized by his peers at Stanford University’s medical school and other health experts.
