Bill Gates Says Trump Administration Hired Scott Atlas Because 'He Agrees With Their Crackpot Theories'
https://www.newsweek.com/bill-gates-trump-administration-scott-atlas-crackpot-theories-1531873
Bill Gates has claimed Scott Atlas was only appointed as a White House coronavirus advisor because he agrees with the Trump administration's "crackpot theories."
The Microsoft co-founder, whose Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has committed more than $350 million to tackling the COVID-19 pandemic, made the comments in an interview with health news website STAT in which he strongly criticized the administration's response to the crisis.
Gates told STAT: "The administration's now hired this Stanford guy who has no background at all just because he agrees with their crackpot theories."
Atlas, a senior fellow at the conservative-leaning Hoover Institute at Stanford University, became an advisor to the Trump administration in August. The appointment of the neuroradiologist, who is not an expert in infectious disease or epidemiology, was viewed by some as an attempt to counter the opinions of Coronavirus Task Force members such as Dr. Anthony Fauci, who has served as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984. Throughout the pandemic, Fauci has been careful not to openly criticize Trump while correcting false claims.
Last week, 78 of Atlas' former colleagues at the Stanford University School of Medicine signed a letter denouncing claims he made about the pandemic, stating they had a "moral and an ethical responsibility to call attention to the falsehoods and misrepresentations of science recently fostered" by him.
In the STAT interview, Gates said the U.S. outbreak "has been a mismanaged situation every step of the way." He went on: "It's shocking. It's unbelievable—the fact that we would be among the worst in the world."
Newsweek has contacted Scott Atlas and the White House for comment.
For months, the U.S. has led the world for coronavirus cases and deaths, at over 6.5 million and 194,536, respectively, according to Johns Hopkins University. Worldwide, more than 29.2 million people have been infected by the coronavirus, and 928,403 have died.
The STAT interview was published the day that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation released its 2020 Goalkeepers Report. It warned the COVID-19 pandemic had triggered "mutually exacerbating catastrophes" around the world, and set back vaccine coverage "about 25 years in about 25 weeks."
The report by Gates and his wife Melinda, a former Microsoft general manager, read: "In past editions of the Goalkeepers Report—almost every time we have opened our mouths or put pen to paper, in fact—we have celebrated decades of historic progress in fighting poverty and disease.
"But we have to confront the current reality with candor: This progress has now stopped. In this report, we track 18 indicators included in the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In recent years, the world has improved on every single one. This year, on the vast majority, we've regressed."
Gates told The New York Times he hoped the lost ground could be regained "in two to three years."

That being said, Bill Gates has financed and defended and enabled that Chinese puppet arrangement at the UN a/k/a WHO.
If he spent as much time and vigilance watching that crew and making the WHO and his chinese funded buddies more transparent that might have prevented the very pandemic where he criticizes others for not being reliable.
How embarrassing, the guy you use for your propaganda disabows your own propaganda..

CNN exclusive: Fauci says he was taken out of context in new Trump campaign ad touting coronavirus response
(CNN)Dr. Anthony Fauci did not consent to being featured in a new advertisement from the Trump campaign touting President Donald Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic. Instead, the nation's leading infectious disease expert told CNN his words were taken out of context.
"In my nearly five decades of public service, I have never publicly endorsed any political candidate. The comments attributed to me without my permission in the GOP campaign ad were taken out of context from a broad statement I made months ago about the efforts of federal public health officials," Fauci said in a statement provided exclusively to CNN when asked if he agreed to be featured in the ad.

Just another example of Trump throwing aside experts trying to give him proper advice.
The worst part is that the underlying reason Trump doesn't like Fauci is because Fauci gets positive media attention --- you tend to get positive attention when you tell the truth.
Horseshit. You get positive attention from the media when you tote their narrative or a narrative they like.
If you are adversarial to Trump, you get bonus points.
