Former White House coronavirus task force official Dr. Deborah Birx revealed Sunday that Donald Trump used mysterious graphs during presentations on COVID-19 that she did not create, which provided selective, misleading data. “I saw the president presenting graphs that I never made,” Birx said in an interview on “Face the Nation” on CBS. Birx, who was the designated coordinator of the White House coronavirus response, also complained to host Margaret Brennan about a disturbing “parallel data stream coming into the White House.”She said at least some of the competing “data streams” were “certainly” coming from Dr. Scott Atlas. Fauci also addressed COVID-19 misinformation pushed by Trump in a New York Times article Sunday. He said the former president spouted false COVID-19 theories to him that he had heard on the phone, possibly from friends or business associates.
