In a video on his website, Mr. Cain described the rally and he said he had worn a mask while in groups of people. But he also posted photographs of himself on social media that showed him without a mask and surrounded by people in the arena. “People were concerned, because of the media, about whether or not this was going to turn into another uptick in number of cases of Covid-19,” Mr. Cain said in the video. Mr. Cain said that all rally participants, including him, had had their temperatures checked and that some people had worn masks. “I realize people will speculate about the Tulsa rally, but Herman did a lot of traveling the past week,” he wrote.
