It sounded pretty even handed to me. how was he trashed? What was distorted? Did not get a chance to read the "Pravda" article. Perhaps you could post it.
Scott Atlas, who relies on data, facts and math, is Trump’s new go-to guy.
Awesome move.
Unfortunately, this report from the AP wing of pravda trashes and distorts, as is their job, but at least it reports...
They refer to trump painting a ‘rosy picture’ and they say Atlas has ‘no expertise‘. They refer to Atlas’s appearances on Fox News though he’s appeared on several other outlets. Ignored by MSM.
Atlas will be trashed by your pravda sources from here on out.
When trump said it was under control and would be gone shortly, that was a rosy picture. We will wake up and it will just be gone, was a rosy picture. We will be able to keep deaths below 100,000 was also a rosy picture fir this disease.
The article said Atlas " the former chief of neuroradiology at Stanford University Medical Center and a fellow at Stanford's conservative Hoover Institution, has no expertise in public health or infectious diseases. Nothing trashed about that, unless you are keying only on the "no expertise in public health or infectious diseases". My primary care provider got me an appointment for a stress test with a world class cardiologist, surgeon, lecturer and designer of medical devices and even a heart valve. Expert in his field, but I would not go to him about a flue that attacks upper respiratory, or even request a consultation, as it is not his field of expertise. He would not be insulted by that.
Atlas is a medical
expert. His Stanford colleague Ioannidis is also a medical
expert.
Trump promoting positivity based on current info and data is not glossing anything over as rosy.
The terminology used in the report is propaganda.
Period.
Now that Atlas has been introduced to the heretofore insulated lefty hack democrats, you can be sure everything he reports will be fired upon by Pravda.
I won't argue the merits of the doctor. I figure he is welcome to his opinion, informed to his specialty and it is least as valid as mine, but neither is as informed or as valid as an epidemiologist as communicable disease is more their specialty. When was the last time you visited a neurologist for a communicable disease, such as flu or bronchitis, or hepatitis? I do not, but I am one of those right tool for the right job. I would not consult a mechanical engineer to design a lake or reservoir, just as I would not consult a civil engineer to design automated assembly line equipment.
Drumpf is pretty shallow. I would not trust him for a valid informed opinion on much of anything, especially something involving science. He thinks science is guided by opinion, not fact. He doesn't seem to know much about science and thinks nothing of making up alternate facts, without regard for reality. Though I might give a listen to him on realty.
