Or the Hoover Institute does.

The guy is a raving lunatic not only advocating for the whole country to get sick, but now for people to ignore the efforts of a Governor - who was the target of a kidnapping and assassination plot already - to protect her citizens. Atlas is a totally trash human being who stains Stanford's reputation.  Is someone starting a petition to fire him from all Stanford association?  If not, why not?

And just to further trash his credibility...

Well said. I agree.

And once again, I remind everyone that Atlas wrote an opinion piece in March using the trash Ab seroprevalence paper (Ioannidis + other Stanford/USC people) as why US will have maybe 10,000 dead from COVID-19.  If you're on record having missed the mark by 24x currently and probably much much more by the time this is over, one would hope you pause and self-reflect about how you reason & choose source material.

I personally would like to know more about the whistleblower and potential Stanford investigation on those initial papers.  Based on the independent COVID-19 Testing Project numbers and the whistleblower's bringing up Boyd's ELISA tests, I suspect they cooked their specificity measurement so results wouldn't undermine what they said on the Fox and other news appearances they had been doing for a while before that study got released.  Knowing academia, though, I imagine Stanford will bury it.
