The right way for a non-political doctor in his position to handle this is to say that the decisions about large gatherings (be they protests, schools, sporting events, etc.) are not his to make and that he is only there to provide medical information about the virus and it’s risks. The decisions about those gatherings rest with the elected officials.

Ummm, that's what he did in this clip? He said large gatherings spread the disease, he avoided the politics.

I think the proper response from someone in his position is that obviously large gatherings will result in transmission as the virus doesn’t discriminate. But, he should also say he can’t speak on constitutional issues such as the right to practice religion or protest, and that is for elected leaders to decide.
