Paul Elias Alexander is a Canadian health researcher and a former Trump administration official at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. He attracted attention in 2020 when, as an aide to HHS assistant secretary for public affairs Michael Caputo, he pressured federal scientists and public health agencies to suppress and edit their COVID-19 reports to make them consistent with President Trump's rhetoric on COVID-19.^[1]^[2]

Within the administration, Alexander advocated for a strategy of mass infection of the public with COVID-19 to build herd immunity.^[3] He sought to muzzle federal scientists and public health agencies to prevent them from contradicting the rhetoric coming from the Trump administration.^[4]

He is now a contributor to American Institute for Economic Research.
