Donald Trump’s health adviser resigns
US President Donald Trump’s controversial special adviser on the coronavirus, Scott Atlas, has resigned.
Dr Atlas thanked Mr Trump for the honour of serving the American people and said he had always relied on the latest science and evidence without any political consideration or influence.
In his four months in the role, Dr Atlas questioned the need for masks and other measures to control the pandemic.
He also repeatedly clashed with other members of the coronavirus task force.
