Trump on Friday emphasized he was instructing governors to allow places of worship to resume operations “right now,” and warned that “if there’s any question, they’re going to have to call me — but they are not going to be successful in that call.”
Asked about the wisdom of such a move in the face of warnings from public health experts, Birx pointed to the"Before the president made that announcement, he asked the CDC to get their guidance to churches up, so that churches could reopen safely, so that guidance is up there and available to all churches and congregants to understand how to worship together safely," Birx said on ABC's "This Week" Sunday.
"But the guidance was up before the churches were asked to reopen, and I think that's really important.""We have a right to worship," Sen. Rick Scott said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union" as he repeatedly invoked the Bill of Rights. "Absolutely do I feel comfortable going to church."
