“Anybody who contracts the virus by essentially saying masks don’t matter, social distance doesn’t matter, are responsible for what happens to them,” Joe Biden said during an NBC News town hall in Miami.
Joe Biden said Monday night that people are responsible for their own risky behavior during the coronavirus pandemic — including President Trump, whose announcement late Friday that he had tested positive for the disease rocked the country.
"I’m glad he seems to be coming along pretty well. ... I hope no one walks away with the message it’s not a problem. It’s a serious problem,” Biden said. Trump, who has been criticized for ignoring his own government’s advice about masks and social distancing, was released on Monday after a three-day stay at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center due to complications from COVID-19. Trump had tweeted earlier in the day that he would return to the White House that evening, telling Americans to not “be afraid of Covid.”
Several crucial questions remain about the president’s health, in particular when he last tested negative for the virus. White House physician Dr. Sean Conley dodged a question Monday about the last time the White House knew he was virus-free. Conley has on multiple occasions avoided reporters' questions and admitted to side-stepping prior inquiries about Trump’s use of supplemental oxygen so as to not “steer the course of the illness in another direction.” Conley, however, did not seem reluctant to share positive updates of the president’s state of being.
After Trump’s diagnosis early Friday morning, the Biden campaign committed to pulling negative advertising off the airwaves. While resuming campaign travel over the weekend, Biden had appeared reluctant to answer reporters’ questions about the president before Monday’s town hall. He did, however, wish Trump and the first lady good health.
