Here’s the interview with the crazy claim:

The ellipsis in the quote covers about a minute and a half (around 3:00 to 4:30). After saying it’s good for young people to get infected, he rhetorically asks “Why?” and explains that young exposed people will develop immunity with little risk of complications, thereby breaking up the network pathways of infection, leading to herd immunity.

Doesn’t sound so crazy that way. The evidence is still more limited than one would like, but what I have seen doesn’t support the Atlantic narrative.
