Trump says some Americans wearing masks just to show they dislike him [View all]

Donald Trump has claimed some Americans are wearing masks amid the Covid-19 pandemic to show their disapproval of him and not to slow the virus’s spread.

The US president, who appeared to contradict US Centres for Diseases Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations with his comments, added that his issue with marks was that people touch them.

“They put their finger on the mask, and they take them off, and then they start touching their eyes and touching their nose and their mouth,” Mr Trump told The Wall Street Journal. “And then they don’t know how they caught it?”

Those comments come despite the CDC recommending “wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (eg, grocery stores and pharmacies) especially in areas of significant community-based transmission.”
