Most Americans say President Donald Trump should wear a mask in public, a protective measure he has yet to take since the coronavirus pandemic began.
WASHINGTON – Most Americans say President Donald Trump should wear a mask in public, a protective measure he has yet to take since the coronavirus pandemic erupted.
Administration officials, including Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar and HHS testing czar Brett Giroir, wore masks at the news conference, removing them only to speak. Reporters, seated in socially distanced folding chairs, kept their masks on to ask questions.Trump plans to visit a medical supply business in Pennsylvania on Thursday, a week after being criticized for not covering his face during his tour of a mask-making facility in Phoenix.
People pay attention to cues from their political leaders, so a lack of quarantining, mask wearing or social distancing by the president and vice president can affect how the public responds, said Timothy Callaghan, an assistant professor at the Texas A&M School of Public Health. That’s particularly true for fellow Republicans, he said. But people are also noticing how their governors, local health officials and others behave.
