He used his reputation and statistical expertise to mislead the world as to the true prevalence (COVID infection rate) and supported the fantasies of Bhattacharya, Kulldorff and Gupta. It is hard to estimate what effect his misinformation had on COVID control measures, and there was no shortage of attention seeking clowns, but he stepped up to the plate and he can take credit for some of the millions of deaths. It was scientific misconduct but his position shields him from consequences.
