Credibility
This fellow is saying he is competent to discuss COVID-19 treatments because he is a "social scientist." He has been criticizing Dr. Anthony Fauci, the infectious disease expert, who has become the credible voice of the Trump administration. Maybe Navarro can read statistical studies and interpret them correctly, but that doesn't make him qualified to opinionate on the progress of the disease. He has put himself into a difficult position and he could go down if his views prove to be wrong. Meanwhile, the public and the media have a right to take his words skeptically. Since when has a social scientist been deemed qualified to discuss medical issues?
