Francis Collins expressed regret over calling the authors of the Great Barrington Declaration "fringe epidemiologists" but maintained that their proposal for focused protection was dangerous. The declaration, authored by scientists from Oxford, Harvard, and Stanford, advocated for allowing the virus to spread among the healthy to build natural immunity while protecting the elderly.
