A controversial coronavirus adviser to the president, Dr. Scott Atlas, resigned
Monday, a White House official told NPR.
Atlas, who is not an infectious disease expert and whose brief stint was marred
by blunders and controversy, was tapped by the Trump administration to serve as
special adviser to the president in August. Since then, "the MRI guy" has
repeatedly been at odds with the nation's leading health officials regarding his
views on how to combat the spread of the virus, including members of the White
House Coronavirus Task Force.
Throughout his tenure, he has insisted all of the guidance he has offered was
based on scientific research.
"I worked hard with a singular focus—to save lives and help Americans through
this pandemic," Atlas wrote in a resignation letter posted to Twitter.
He added that he "always relied on the latest science and evidence, without any
political consideration or influence."
"As time went on, like all scientists and health policy scholars, I learned new
information and synthesized the latest data from around the world, all in an
effort to provide you with the best information to serve the greater public
good," Atlas wrote.
Fox News reported that Atlas' role was set to expire at the end of the week.
President Trump was attracted to Atlas' views, which put the economy first, but
public health experts were appalled by his lack of scientific rigor.

Atlas is a quack. He's a fucking *radiologist* who knows nothing about
infectious disease or immunology.
