Let's move onto the head of the NIH. Here we find one of the authors of the herd immunity via "focused protection" document the Great Barrington Declaration, considered both fringey and cringey and without scientific merit.

Moving on to (checks notes twice) Mehmet Oz for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid. This is an unserious and unscrupulous man.
