About this listen

What really happened behind the scenes at the Trump White House during the COVID pandemic?

When Dr. Scott W. Atlas was tapped by Donald Trump to join his COVID Task Force, he was immediately thrust into a maelstrom of scientific disputes, policy debates, raging egos, politically motivated lies, and cynical media manipulation. Numerous myths and distortions surround the Trump Administration’s handling of the crisis, and many pressing questions remain unanswered. Did the Trump team really bungle the response to the pandemic? Were the right decisions made about travel restrictions, lockdowns, and mask mandates? Are Drs. Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx competent medical experts or timeserving bureaucrats? Did half a million people really die unnecessarily because of Trump’s incompetence?

So far no trusted figure has emerged who can tell the story straight - until now. In this unfiltered insider account, Dr. Scott Atlas brings us directly into the White House, describes the key players in the crisis, and assigns credit and blame where it is deserved.

The book includes shocking evaluations of the Task Force members’ limited knowledge and grasp of the science of COVID and details heated discussions with Task Force members, including all of the most controversial episodes that dominated headlines for weeks. Dr. Atlas tells the truth about the science and documents the media’s relentless campaign to suffocate it, which included canceled interviews, journalists’ off-camera hostility in White House briefings, and intentional distortion of facts. He also provides an inside account of the delays and timelines involving vaccines and other treatments, evaluates the impact of the lockdowns on American public health, and indicts the relentless war on truth waged by Big Business and Big Tech.

No other book contains these revelations. Millions of people who trust Dr. Atlas will want to listen to this dramatic account of what really went on behind the scenes in the White House during the greatest public health crisis of the 21st century.

This was an excellent book. An insider's view of the Trump pandemic white house. He exposes the media's lies and where the real issues lay in the heart of the administration. It would have benefited by including in the commentary the scientific citations instead of just saying he "used evidence".

Excellent but a little more detail

This sums up most of the Covid conundrum on one book - although there are several other pieces of the puzzle. We have the battle between the approaches, the Fauci/Birx lockdowns vs the Atlas (and others) focussed protection strategy - which appears to have had the bulk of the science and data behind it. And we have the mass media war against anything counter-narrative.
All of this is comprehensively and compellingly captured by the apolitical and science driven Dr Atlas caught in the centre of the pandemic and deranged anti-Trump maelstrom, as the plot thickened to rival Shakespeare with the clock ticking down toward the election and all of the attendant, rampant censorship and propaganda and malfeasance that it brought with it.
Whilst we are getting Dr Atlas' side of the story of course, his assertions appear to have the credibility and scientific backing that the other side lacks (according to him), which makes it sound like all that we suffered through around the world with the lockdowns may have all been for nothing - and we can see all the collateral destruction now that they have, in Atlas' words, predictably wrought. The end of the book insightfully details the disgusting cesspool the American media became and the effect that had on the public and the world at large.
An at times depressing, angering, and saddening and moving book (due to the incompetence at every turn) that you wont be able to stop listening to.

Devastating, brilliant encapsulation of our time.

Just another conspiracy theorist working to destroy democracy in the hope they will benefit from a Putin style sell off of America to the few in true kleptocratic authoritarian style.
