(LifeSiteNews) — Former White House COVID adviser Dr. Scott Atlas slammed the “public health fiasco” of the past three years and the apparent return of COVID-19 hysteria in an interview last week.
Atlas, a health policy fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution and a former White House adviser on the Coronavirus Task Force during the Trump administration, told The Epoch Times’ Joshua Philipp on Wednesday that the coronavirus response has been “the biggest public health fiasco in modern history, and it’s continuing.”
Reacting to reports of new mask mandates and renewed urgency about coronavirus variants, Atlas said the hype is “shocking, but I don’t think we should be shocked anymore at what’s happening because we’ve seen this for three years now.”
He said the emergence of new variants is to be expected, and that mutations will leave new variants less and less lethal than their original strains.
“There is no significant, real, dangerous pandemic going on,” he said. “That’s just false.”
Atlas explained emphatically that the coronavirus masks frequently promoted and even mandated to ostensibly stop or slow the spread of the virus “don’t work, period. That’s proven.”
