First lady Melania Trump wanted to spread some seasonal cheer to sick children on Tuesday when she visited the Children's National Hospital. CNN reports she continued her annual tradition of visiting them, despite the coronavirus pandemic and record cases in Washington, DC. However, Mrs. Trump also broke the hospital's stated mask policy when she removed her mask to read a holiday book to children. While she arrived in the hospital's main atrium wearing a mask, she removed it when she took her seat in front of a tree. She did practice social distancing. However, the hospital's policy specifically requires all visitors to wear a mask.
On Saturday, GOP Rep-Elect Bob Good of Virginia labeled the coronavirus pandemic as "phony." Good made the remarks at a rally in support of President Donald Trump in Washington, DC. Business Insider reports he told the crowd they looked like a group of people that get that this is a phony pandemic." "It's a serious virus, but it's a virus. It's not a pandemic ... You get it. You stand up against tyranny." Just a day earlier, the US had roughly 231,000 new coronavirus infections and over 3,300 COVID-19 deaths. Both of those are record numbers for the country, according to the latest data compiled by Johns Hopkins University.
Dr. Anthony Fauci says he and his wife would be thrilled if their three daughters came to spend Thanksgiving with them in Washington, D.C. But according to Business Insider, the daughters intend to stay right where they are, in various cities across the country that aren't low in COVID-19 cases. Fauci said in a webinar hosted by American University that his daughters want to protect him from the novel coronavirus. The seemingly tireless doctor is 79 years old. Like Fauci, other public health experts have said there's no one answer as to whether you should visit family over the holidays. I'm not going to criticize people who do it differently, but look at the individual situation in your own family and make a decision that way. Dr. Anthony Fauci
