Controversial scientist Scott Atlas, who has Donald Trump’s ears, has removed a tweet from Twitter in which he falsely states that the mask fails to protect against the coronavirus.

The Washington Post, meanwhile, reports that Atlas has spread discord within the White House, so Coronavirus Response Coordinator Deborah Burks was incensed that she had complained to Vice-President Mike Pence and called for Atlas to be removed.

The Post reports that at a meeting of the Oval Office Fees, Atlas placed himself behind a resolution desk after Trump left the room. The account was rejected by a senior fellow scientist at the Stanford-based Hoover Institute.

On Sunday, Twitter tweeted: “Does the mask work?” No. The company said the post violated its Covid-19 misinformation policy, which prohibits “sharing harmful or misleading content.”
