DR. SCOTT ATLAS (GUEST): Well, I mean, this is your -- your previous guest summed it up. I mean, I think at some point, the policymakers have to realize the massive -- really -- failure of our public health officials. Lockdowns do not eliminate the virus. All lockdowns do are destroy families, really kill people, miss medical care that's very serious, destroy the children, and then, after you open up the lockdown, the virus is still there -- and we see it in Europe. And it's amazing to me that places, unfortunately, like the U.K. and France have not learned their lesson. Hopefully, the American people understand how to use their vote to stop that kind of thing from happening here. 

LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): And doc--

ATLAS: Lockdowns really destroy people, particularly the working-class families.
