That story is rubbish for more reasons than I care to get into, but I'll knock it down by destroying its foundation.
The idea that because there were doctors doing the POTUS medical briefing, it implies credibility, is absurd. Dr. Conley isn't a real Covid doctor and he works for the POTUS as CiC. It would have been more honest to put the White House Press Secretary in a white coat, hair pulled back in a ponytail, wearing glasses, and have her brief the press pretending to be a doctor. If a member of the press suspected it was her and asked "Kayleigh, is that you?" she would say "No, but I get that a lot," continuing to deny until she had to undo the ponytail, take off the glasses and white coat. That wouldn't be any less farcical than the men in white coats theatrical production that was done, and apparently conned the BBC reporter.
