“Even as coronavirus cases increase across the country — and as members of his administration encourage some states to reverse their reopenings — President Trump said Monday that some governors need to loosen restrictions” CNN reports.
“‘I really do believe a lot of the governors should be opening up states that they’re not opening,’ Trump said, without specifying which states should be opening.”
“The message doesn’t align with what members of the White House coronavirus task force have advised governors in states where cases are increasing. Health experts like Drs. Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx have said states with spiking case counts should close bars and indoor restaurants, among other restrictions.”
