Here is problem #3 behind the moon bat Biden and MrsHen cackler Harris.

The good Dr wasn’t expecting a real question about his treasonous actions.
=======

Dr. Francis Collins, a top U.S. health official, was caught off-guard when he was asked for the first time about a report issued by members of Congress that revealed new information, including the email Collins sent urging a “takedown” of the Great Barrington Declaration, according to an email obtained by The Epoch Times.

Collins, the head of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) until Dec. 19, 2021, called for a “quick and devastating published takedown” of the declaration, which called for a more balanced approach to combating the COVID-19 pandemic, in an email in October 2020.

The email, sent just days after the document was authored by three epidemiologists, was made public by a congressional panel near the end of 2021.

In an appearance on Fox News just hours after the panel’s report was released, Collins was confronted about the email for the first time. Host Neil Cavuto asked Collins about the report’s claims that the White House under President Donald Trump made attempts to “undermine the COVID response.”

Collins, now a senior investigator at the NIH and a top adviser to President Joe Biden, said he was “trying to stay out of the political side of this” and declined to comment before Cavuto asked about the “takedown” email.

“Well, OK, if it’s that specific,” Collins said.

“Yes, there were people, particularly Dr. Scott Atlas, that said don’t worry about this business of putting on masks or asking people to isolate themselves or stay physically distanced, ‘just let it rip’ and let this virus run through the country until everybody has had it, and then we’ll have herd immunity,'” he added. “But the consequence of that would have been hundreds of thousands of additional deaths. That didn’t make sense to me.”

Atlas was a top health adviser to Trump.

SMH.
 
Sometimes I think that there is a cult that worships a line that is generated from computers out of Lower Manhattan and if that line goes down it means that it is angry and a lot of people have to die to make the line go up again.
