Health experts have said mask-wearing, hand-washing, social distancing and being careful about crowds currently make up the best defense against the virus. ADBiden, by contrast, said Trump has been “totally irresponsible” in the way he has handled social distancing and masks, and in holding large rallies. At the events, he regularly mocks virus mitigation efforts, like social distancing, as little more than political ploys by Democratic state leaders bent on punishing him. The campaign’s policy has been to strictly adhere to all guidelines in states Biden visits, and to avoid gathering crowds of non-invited voters. The White House task force report stops short of the “maximal degree possible” warning for social distancing for those states or the states that Biden plans to visit.
