February 13, 2024 – Maryanne Demasi Substack: Fauci needs to come clean on his pandemic failures – Former White House advisor Scott Atlas accuses Fauci of malfeasance and says he caused “tremendous destruction of trust in public health and in science” – PART 1, PART 2

[Fauci’s] de facto leadership in the management of the pandemic was the biggest healthcare crisis in a century. And he, along with Deborah Birx, the official leader of the medical side of the White House Task Force at the time, have a legacy of not only leading the biggest fiasco of public health emergency in history, but also causing a long lasting and severely damaged younger generation of children. We have yet to see the full impact of that. Fauci’s final legacy will be the tremendous destruction of trust in public health and in science. I’m not sure how we will recover from that.

  • According to Dr. Scott Atlas, “Deborah Birx, White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator for the Trump Administration, controlled most of the messaging and communication coming from the Coronavirus Task Force to the American people and governors.”

March 6, 2023 – Newsweek | Opinion: America’s COVID Response Was Based on Lies – by Scott Atlas – READ

  • “The tragic failure of reckless, unprecedented lockdowns that were contrary to established pandemic science, and the added massive harms of those policies on children, the elderly, and lower-income families, are indisputable and well-documented in numerous studies. This was the biggest, the most tragic, and the most unethical breakdown of public health leadership in modern history.”
  • The 10 biggest falsehoods—known for years to be false…:
    • SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus has a far higher fatality rate than the flu by several orders of magnitude.
    • Everyone is at significant risk to die from this virus.
    • No one has any immunological protection, because this virus is completely new.
    • Asymptomatic people are major drivers of the spread.
    • Locking down—closing schools and businesses, confining people to their homes, stopping non-COVID medical care, and eliminating travel—will stop or eliminate the virus.
    • Masks will protect everyone and stop the spread.
    • The virus is known to be naturally occurring, and claiming it originated in a lab is a conspiracy theory.
    • Teachers are at especially high risk.
    • COVID vaccines stop the spread of the infection.
    • Immune protection only comes from a vaccine.

  • “All policy considerations I recommended to the President were designed to reduce both the spread of the virus to the most vulnerable and the structural harms of the policies to those impacted the most – the poor and working class of America. I was one of the first to push for increasing protections to those most at risk, particularly the elderly, because they were dying by the tens of thousands because the chosen policies implemented by states, recommended by other Task Force members, were failing to protect them.”

  • “Dr. Scott Atlas is the Robert Wesson Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, an accomplished physician, and a scholar of public health.
  • For several weeks, Dr. Atlas has been making the case in print and in other media that we as a society have overreacted in imposing draconian restrictions on movement, gatherings, schools, sports, and other activities. He is not a COVID-19 denier—he believes the virus is a real threat and should be managed as such. But, as Dr. Atlas argues, there are some age groups and activities that are subject to very low risk. The one-size-fits-all approach we are currently using is overly authoritarian, inefficient, and not based in science.”

May 25, 2020 – The Hill | Opinion: The COVID-19 shutdown will cost Americans millions of years of life – by Scott Atlas et al – READ

  • COVID-19 fatalities have fallen disproportionately on the elderly, particularly in nursing homes, and those with co-morbidities. Based on the expected remaining lifetimes of these COVID-19 patients, and given that 40 percent of deaths are in nursing homes, the disease has been responsible for 800,000 lost years of life so far
  • Considering only the losses of life from missed health care and unemployment due solely to the lockdown policy, we conservatively estimate that the national lockdown is responsible for at least 700,000 lost years of life every month, or about 1.5 million so faralready far surpassing the COVID-19 total.

May 23, 2020 – The Liberty Forum with Scott Atlas, MD – WATCH

  • “Many officials continue to pursue a Covid-19 mitigation policy of broad societal lockdown focusing on containing the spread of the disease at all costs, instead of the original objective of “flattening the curve” and preventing hospital overcrowding.
  • …the lockdown was imposed without consideration of its consequences beyond those directly resulting from the pandemic.
  • Dr. Scott Atlas will relate how continuing these lockdown policies are yielding devastating ramifications far beyond the damage of the virus itself. Apart from simple lost income, lives are being sacrificed due to delayed or denied health care due to the continued shutdown.”
