who wear them or not? or eastern8000 f and central time zones, (202) 748-8001 for mountain and pacific time zones. appearses as a new poll on the pages of usa today this morning. a story about americans pulled and asked if they wear a face mask. have worn a mask in order to limit the spread of the coronavirus according to a survey from the democracy fund. were conducted in this poll. there is a small disparity among age groups. people are slightly less mask, 70 have worn a percent of those 18 from 29. americans 65 and older say they have worn a mask. to the cdc, here is what they say about face coverings. individuals with cannavirus symptoms transmit the virus before showing symptoms. this means the virus can spread between people interacting in close proximity. evidence,f this new the cdc recommends wearing cloth faith cover -- cloth face coverings. especially in areas of significant community-based transmission. those of the cdc recommendations. a couple days ago, it was dr. deborah birx. she was asked a

and that's what a mask is for. >> remember, i wear my face covering to protect you and you wear yours to protect me. >> and out of respect for each other as americans that care for each other we need to be wearing masks in public when we cannot social distance. >> we're all in this together. >> just think about what dr. birx said there. out of respect for each other, out of care for each other. yet the president of the united states, the leader of this country, whose own coronavirus task force is recommending and pleading and urging that people wear masks when they can't social distance outside, the president himself is undercutting that message, not just by not wearing a mask himself but by mocking vice president biden for wearing a mask. that's what he's doing. he's mocking the idea of wearing a mask. and he has the gall to do that when all the people around him, they're forced to wear masks. he doesn't so he can appear on camera without a mask. but he can only do that because all the people around him, all the people who work in the white house who don't have the access to a consta

reopen, a lot of people are still wearing masks, choosing to wear masks, recognizing the importancethem in terms of protecting the health of those around them. it's not a binary thing open or not opened. we've seen that effectiveness. i will say, washington, we've said all along we know there will be a certain number of people who become infected and otherwise would not. we have numbers, projections out of the children's hospital looking at, for example, what would happen in palm beach county. i think we have some numbers, basically in palm beach, roughly 102 patients are becoming infected per day, in four weeks 383. significant jumps with these option. they looked at houston, currently 205 cases per day. they think it could go to 2400, almost 2500 per day. obviously, these are projections, we've seen so many models over the last few months. those are significant increases in the number of people who get infected. many of those people may not even know, there will be a percentage that may require hospitalization, a percentage that may die. that is the sort of risk-reward proposition

i am personally wearing a mask and i always wear gloves. a political now ,ituation where you find people let's be honest, republicans tend not to wear masks and people who are democrats tend to wear masks more. mask and help prevent infection, i would like to see people find were not wearing a mask. i don't think it's a personal choice. i think it's about being your brother's keeper and knowing that infections can be decreased by keeping a mask. just about out of time and mark in michigan, go ahead. caller: thanks. science, if everybody is talking science, you can get 250,000 of these little particles of covid in the span of one inch. were the virus and you're looking three mask, the opening would be the equivalent of a two-car garage door being wide open. that ityou are right gives a false sense of security. the only time i wear a mask is and on theo a store door it says you can't enter the store without the mask. i'm doing it just to satisfy them. host: do you see those type of signs? caller: everywhere. store we can go into for necessiti

is he wearing a mask? nope. >> take us through your thought process with why you decided not to wear a mask. >> i had one on before. i wore one in the back area. i didn't want to give the press the pleasure of seeing it. i had it in the back area. i put a mask on. >> did you have the goggles on? >> i did. goggles and a mask. >> why are you not wearing? >> in this area -- take it. not necessary here. everybody has been tested. i have been tested. i was tested this morning. it's not necessary. i was given a choice. i had one on in an area where they prefer it. i put on and it was nice. they said not necessary here. please? >> what about the example it would set for other americans -- >> it sets an example both ways. i did have it on. >> it looked very nice. did you hear that? it looked very nice. not it wasn't necessary. okay, nothing but excuses. it's not necessary to wear a mask. i had one on before. i didn't want to give reporters the pleasure of seeing me. i had one on and it looked very nice. i was give

okay, two lives, wear a mask. what's the harm? there is no down side to wearing a mask. except for a political point that the president is grasping on to that frankly is just giving his opponents fire to -- it fuels their fire that he is -- >> and remember, he was in such fear that he could have contracted it from someone, he was taking hydroxychloroquine, and people tested around him, and he was not wearing a mask around them. thank you all, vf, and next, a new model by the cdc expects hospitalizations to go up in less tlan two weeks. cases are spiking in parts of the country and breaking news in minneapolis. the national guard has been activated. crowds are building again following the death of george floyd, and 1 in 4 americans are out of work since the coronavirus outbreak began. >> what has the virus done to your industry? >> nobody's working right now. you wouldn't accept an incomplete job from anyone else. why accept it from your allergy pills? flonase sensimist. nothing stronger. nothing gentler. nothing lasts longer. flonase sensimist. 24 hour non-drowsy allergy

they should be wearing a mask. i think it's a good thing these three doctors are quarantining themselves. it's an example. i think that these conversations about mask, no mask and the testing, i think some of this is going to seem in a few weeks, wolf, trivial. kind of like when we first started talking about people should be physically distancing j outside, people were reluctant and then a few weeks later it became the norm. you wear a mask so as to not spread the virus, to decrease the likelihood you would spread the virus. the virus is in the white house now. people need to wear mask. we don't have a vaccine. we've got to do what we know how to do as best as we can do it and wears a mask is part of that. we'll look back on this conversation in a few weeks and say i can't even believe we had to have that conversation. it's obvious now. it should be obvious certainly at the white house and everywhere elsewhere the virus could be spreading. >> it's not just katie miller, the press secretary to the vice president wh

he did not wear one in front of reporters, he didn't want reporters to see him wearing a mask. that will be an emerging headline that comes out of this aids did not expect him to wear one in front of the cameras because of that and, of course, he did not. >> it seems an odd thing to worry about given the fact that reporters have been relaying that health officials think it would be a great idea for all leaders to wear them in public. i do not know why he would not want that image out there. thank you so much. appreciate it. >>> coming up, or actually right now in our national lead, a cry for help from the mayor of montgomery, alabama. the mayor says the city's healthcare system has been quote maxed out. mayor steven reed is warning people who need an icu intensive care unit bed they may not be able to get one because patients from rural areas have overwhelmed city hospitals. here's the mayor on cnn earlier today. >> it's really alarming. we started getting calls probably a week and a half ago from hospital administrators explaining to us the number of covid patients they were s

telling us to wear masks! you got these red lights that tell us when we can drive, stopping me from buying romaine lettuce because it has e. coli on it! some of us like the taste of e. coli! it's called a refined palette! i'll be honest, i've never understood why some people complain about a "nanny state." nannies are awesome! i mean, they let you take afternoon naps. they always have a little baggie of goldfish. they let you watch tv all day while they stare at their phone. in fact, when this is over, i'm hiring a nanny for myself. i want to eat gold fish! so the question remains: why are some americans so resistant to wearing masks? maybe it's a comfort thing. maybe it's an aversion to taking orders. or maybe they just want to show off that pasty quarantine skin. another reason might be that their leaders are leading by example. only the wrong example. >> the c.d.c. is advising the use of nonmedical cloth face covering as an additional voluntary public health measure. so, it's voluntary. you don't have to do

wearing the mask in public. making sure you're staying at least six to maybe 10 to 14 feet and avoiding going out or to the backyard. those are ways to avoid the dreaded second wave. >> a lot of people go to ocean city. how should they be protecting themselves what should they be doing? >> that is physically distancing from people, at least sirks feet. if you're going to the concession stands. or in ocean city, there's an enormous boardwalk with games and bars, not only do you need to wear a mask, you need insist they're wearing one near you and your kids. youhe youhead should probably limit alcohol so you minimize those lapses. and as your physician, i want you to wear sun screen to preventd sun burn and future cancer risks as well. >> would you feel comfortable going to a beach or pool right now? >> you know, it depends. if i'm at a very uncrowded pool, if it was my own pool or a place like that, i think i would potentially feel comfortable as long as i could stay far enough from other people. however, going t

if he's not wearing a mask, i'm not going to wear a mask.f he's not worried, i'm not worried. >> reporter: the president? >> yes, sir. >> joining us now is governor mike dewine, governor of ohio where deaths just crossed the 2000 mark. governor, thanks for being with us. i know how busy you are. you've been a vocal proponent for wearing masks. it's something you try to enforce and had to kind of back off it and leave it up to people's good sense of judgment and care for their fellow citizens. when you hear that young man say he's not wearing a mask because the president isn't wearing a mask, obviously the president, all the people around the president are wearing masks, so he is not wearing a mask because i guess he feels he doesn't have to. what do you say to people in your state to try to get them to wear masks? >> well, i say that they should wear a mask. and first of all, anderson, one thing i think we have going for us, this past weekend was the first weekend that our restaurants were open inside and that our bars were open inside. i go

he went on twitter, retweeted a photo of you wearing it, he's trying to belittle you for wearing a mask, making it seem like a sign of weakness. is it? >> he's a fool, an absolute fool to talk that way. every leading doc in the world is saying you should wear a mask when you're in a crowd, and especially when you know you're going to be in a position where you're going to inadvertently get closer than 12 feet to somebody. i know we're 12 feet apart, i get that. but it's just absolutely -- this macho stuff, for a guy -- i shouldn't get going. but it's cost people lives. it's costing people's lives. like i said, we're almost 100,000 dead today. 100,000 people. columbia study showing, if he had just started a week earlier, we would have saved thousands of lives. i mean, this is a tragedy. >> wearing a mask has become a cultural and political flashpoint. the president is involved in that, even stoking that. >> sure he is. and he's stoking deaths. that's not going to increase the likelihood that people are going to be better off. >> do you think wearing a mask projects strength or weakness?

reporter: they do wear masks? pres. trump: they do, they wear masks. a lot of people around the white house wear masks. frankly, a lot of people want to wear masks until this goes away. we have a lot of people in the white house wearing masks. just a little while ago they were wearing a mask. but i noticed a lot of the reporters are not.

and we wear them to protect each other, right? we wear them outside to protect our communities. and really the dumb thing is also what the president doesn't realize is that the mask actually will protect him too. and if he was my patient, i would have him wear an n95 mask because it's important that he not get sick. i don't want him to get sick. i desperately don't want him to get sick. he should be protecting himself. his doc should be protecting him. he should be wearing an n95 mask. he should have limited visitors. he should be doing most of his meetings by video conferencing. he and the vice president should never be together. they need to protect each other. instead there's the stupid faux macho i don't need to wear a mask, the virus is not real, it's going to go away. it's nonsense. it would be humorous if it wasn't damaging the country. it's setting an incredibly bad example. that's how you put the virus down. that's how you get back to normal is by wearing a mask. if you want to open the country, and i know he desperately wants to open the country, he wants the economy t

president trump mocks biden for wearing a mask in public and won't wear one himself. stand by for that. >>> let's get more from california. the centers from disease control and prevention raising a red flag about those antibody tests. >> reporter: wolf, basically saying they are no better than a coin toss. they can be wrong about half of the time. i am booked to get one tomorrow morning like many others, hoping that i have had it, but the cdc is now saying these tests are not good enough to make any policy judgments. they are not good enough to tell if somebody should go back to work or back to college. they are, frankly, not fit for purpose. anyway, we still don't know if you had it, if you have the antibodies, if you are immune. this is another setback. meanwhile, the so-called transition to greatness, the reopening, rolls on. we are nearing 100,000 dead and we are reopening. while the rate of new cases still climbs in 17 states including california. >> we are walking into the unknown, the untested lig rally and figuratively. we have to be guided by the data. >> 20

to wear a mask, sir? >> i think it's a mask facility, right? >> are you going to wear a mask? >> if it's a mask facility, i will, yeah. i don't know if it's a mask facility. we're going to see honeywell. they have done an incredible job on many fronts, so i'm going to pay my respects to a great company and a great state, the state of arizona. >> okay. well, paying his respects to a great company. better to pay his respects to those americans who we've lost. the white house official says honeywell told them that the president didn't need to wear a mask, though a sign at the facility instructed workers to wear them. it would have been a good opportunity to show some leadership, especially as states are reopening. but the president, who is clearly itching to get back to the campaign rallies that he loves so much, with election day just six months away, ending his speech at honeywell with the rolling stones, "you can't always get what you want," just the way he ends his rallies. with more and more americans d

i urge you all to wear blue in memory of them. tomorrow, all localities in virginia will have entered phase one. this includes northern virginia, accomac county and the city of richmond. as a reminder, in phase one, nonessential retail an houses of worship may open at 50% capacity. restaurants may have outdoor seating at 50% capacity. gyms and fitness centers are allowed to conduct outdoor fitness classes. and salons and barbershops may operate with strict requirements for social distancing and face coverings. again, i want to reiterate that just because a business is allowed to open doesn't mean that it must open. also starting tomorrow, everyone needs to wear face covering in an indoor public space. as i have said, a face covering does not have to be elaborate. you can find plans on the internet to make your own mask out of cloth, even a ban da in a. i would just like to take this opportunity -- a bandana. i would just like to take this opportunity, a lot of folks offered me masks and send them to me. i have one on today. i want

if it's a policy that the president should wear a mask, he shake consider wearing one. here is a difference when it comes to president trump versus the rest of the population. president trump is testing every single day for the virus causing covid-19. he was tested this morning and tested negative. the reason we wear masks is because this virus has such a symptomatic spread. meaning you may feel fine, but you are actually contagious. you can be infecting other people. if he has tested negative, he doesn't actually have to be wearing a mask, because he's not going to be spreading it to somebody else. with that being said, he could contract the virus himself. we are all waiting for these waters right now. i don't know. it will be great if he did. we do know that he tested negative. he's not putting anybody else at risk. i think that's what people are really concerned about right n now. >> neil: the reason i wanted to ask you about, not about the president and where he does or not, but this edc gets very mixed breeds on this. like i will pooh-pooh that talk. before i get y

since wearing masks, people wearing gloves have seemingly vanished. shouldn't we be wearing both?very people, grocery store clerks have wearing both. there's been no mention of wearing gloves on the news for weeks. it confuses me. what's the safest thing to do? >> it is confusing, paul. that's a question you and many others including people in many medical profession is confused as well. i wear gloves when i'm out and about. i'm in gloves and in a safe face covering as well. the issue about people touching surfaces is a complicated one because there's been a lot of research about when it is and when it is not safe to touch a surface. some surfaces are more likely to carry it longer than others. the safest thing to do would be to wear disposable gloves. this goes for individuals and people that handle things that will be handed to you. whether it's store clerk, postal workers and so on, i think the safer thing to do is to wear disposable gloves. >> i think regardless of whether you wear gloves, the advice about hand washing still carries. >> right. except when we're out and we have

he wants everybody else to wear a mask. he just refuses to wear one, himself. and you know who wasn't in the rose garden today? the vice president, mike pence, the head of the coronavirus task force. even though we know that he was in washington. we saw him arriving at the white house, this morning. it's a little hard -- there he is -- little hard to see him, through all those trees. but he's not wearing a mask, from what we can see. do as i say, not as i do. that's leadership, right? that was sarcasm. seemed to play well with an audience of one. an audience of one in the white house. and then there is the latest example of this president's obsession with former president barack obama. obsessed. we've seen it over and over. obama lives, rent free, in his head. just listen to president trump, randomly, smearing the former president when phillip rucker, the white house bureau chief at the "washington post," asks him about his tweet over the weekend falsely and outrageously claiming that obama committed a political crime. >> obama gate. it's been going on for a lo

if you support trump, you don't wear a mask. if you do not support trump, you do wear a mask.on't know how this has been so political. it's health-based and guidelines of cdc. talk to me about this. >> yes, i wrote a piece about that this week, talking about this very subject. it's been a touchstone of culture wars. and, you know, it's a pretty sad fact that it's part of that. if you wear a mask, it doesn't mean that you're automatically a democrat. or if you don't, you're republican. there are some partisan lines that don't line up exactly. you don't have to wear a mask when you're in your car and the windows are up. but i think a lot of people that want to send a good message to their neighbors. they want to say, hey, we're in this together. i don't want to expose anyone, i may be asymptomatic and a positive case, i just don't want to risk it. just a half a percentage point chance if everybody didn't wear a mask then we could see a lot of spread. >> let's talk about president trump and the biden election. you have a scenario that democrats are dreading. what is that scenario

harris, the question of wearing the mask right now, to wear or not to wear, that particular question, it almost seems like it's the latest battle in an ongoing culture war in this country and that a lot of folks, they take great pride in not wearing that mask and perhaps it's not just about the mask. it would seem for some it's about something else altogether. >> craig, i think you're right about that. this is quite unfortunate. because this virus knows no political affiliation. it will infect people from all political parties, and so we really need to make sure that our response is a public health response. the data and the science know no political or religious affiliation. it really is about the health of the public and reducing the spread. i hope that people look at their own personal lives. i think about my father and my inability to visit my dad right now at his retirement community. that's why i continue to do all i can. i'm hoping that we can change the narrative though because it really is about keeping people safe and healthy. >> dr. harris, thank you. thanks so much for you

wearing a mask is important. if you are going to be within closer than six feet, which ideally you won't be with groups of strangers wearing a mask would be important at that time. also, we have to remember the larger the group you're in, the greater the risk. so if you happen to get to a beach or any location that's crowded, that's not where you want to be. lastly, the longer you're in that place, the greater your risk as well. so you might want to impose somewhat of a time limit. if you are going to be there, focus on half an hour, an hour rather than all day. . >> rather than parking it there on the sand. dr. dalia, there's been outdoors, there's the sunlight, the wind. i know we saw some people on the bike paths which reopened on the beaches in california this weekend. how does all of that, the movement, the wind, the sun, how does that affect the spread of the virus? >> like you just heard, this virus doesn't spread as well outdoors. it is fragile in the environment. if there is uv radiation contained in sun

. >> you don't want to wear a mask, fine. if that storeowner doesn't want you to, that storeowner has a right to protect themselves. >> reporter: andrew cuomo announced in order that would allow stores to deny service to customers who refuse to wear masks. governor cuomo is making a push on the mask wearing thing. earlier this week he called it the cool thing to do to fight coronavirus but should mask wearing be made a requirement? this twitter user says sure, writing funny thing is it is perfectly legal under the constitution for businesses to deny entry for not wearing a mask, referring to no shirt, no shoes, no service situation, david wright masks should not be forced on the population but aaron says whatever is needed to get new york to fully open again so if you are in the new york area expect to wear a mask for a while. todd: a serious newsday with the best story of the day. a 7-year-old throwing his babysitter a socially distant prom after hers was canceled. carley: i think i will say this is the cutest thing the inte

protecteday to be from others is to wear a mask and goggles. people should be wearing masks.far as mandating goes, the problem with that is that if there is a mandate, it has to be enforced in some way. requires effort from the state. the problem with that is, public health requires a cooperation of people because it is made up of two things. public and their health. if the public does not see a certain act as being necessary to their health, they are not going to comply as much. then you get natural resistance and protests and that is detrimental. the main thing that needs to publicis probably -- method -- messaging. wearing a mask is not going to be necessarily mandated but it is necessary if we do protect one another in the community. we are only in this together if samee all moving in the direction and that includes protecting others from exposure. >> go ahead. caller: good morning, doctor. i was in the metropolitan. bam and -- area in the northeast. if the majority of us take crowded and packed commuter trains and subways to our jobs? >> that is a good question for futur

they should be wearing a mask. i think it's really good that these three doctors are quarantining themselves. i think it sets a good example and reminds people what you have to do and what significant numbers of people will have to do as we start to do significant contact tracing. these conversations about masks, no masks, the testing, i think some of this is going to seem, in a few weeks, wolf, trivial, kind of like when we first started talking about people should be physically distancing outside. people were really reluctant and a couple weeks later it became obviously the norman peop, and understood it. if you wear a mask, it will decrease the likelihood you will spread the virus. weep know that vir we know the virus is in the white house now. we don't have a vaccine. we don't have an effective therapeutic. so we need to do what we know to do as best as we can do it. and wearing a mask is part of it. we'll ho we'll look back on this conversation in a few weeks, wolf, and say i can't believe we had to have that

i'll wear my mask. so, i went there, kind of drove through the parking lot -- this was about 2:00 in the afternoon. i out of about 30 people i saw probably, one person wearing a mask. then i thought i'm not even going to bother going into the store. this doesn't look like a safe place to visit. i thought i'll get up in the morning. so, i went this morning at 6:00 in the morning to go there. none of the employees are wearing masks at all. i went to load my mulch in my car. i respectfully asked the person that met me out there, i said i'll load my own trying to indicate that i wanted to social distance while i was wearing a mask. that person was not wearing a mask. they insisted on helping me load the car, did not respect my social distancing at all. now, a caveat, in addition to that whole thing is i happen to work in the hospital where we have covid patients. and the thing that i do see this -- and this is what's kind of the part that's so frustrating to me -- is that people don't seem to understand tha

to wear a mask in public. and then the virus spikes. and then people die. so i really believe that the president's refusal to wear a mask in public has cost many lives. i think he's responsible for deaths when he doesn't wear a mask. >> is not jay >> sanjay, it's a pretty powerful thing dr. reiner just said. he didn't wear a mask on that michigan trip where anyone could see him. he didn't wear one as he met with african-american leaders. others in the room at that point weren't wearing masks either. we presume they got the test before they were around him, which has a double-digit false negative rate. the president then walked around the factory with no mask on. he said he was tested and the people around him were tested. but again, these rapid tests we know there could be inaccuracy of what, up to 15%? >> even higher than that according to some studies. and as you'll see in those images the people around him were tested and what are they doing? they're still wearing a mask. and i should point out that three o

a mask, i won't wear a mask, well, at some point, he'll have to wear one. at some point, someone is not going to be around him. here he is without the mask. the ford people, bill ford personally asked him to wear one. he wore it privately and refused to wear it publicly. really childish. like, afraid to show this, president trump wearing a mask. is this weakness? no. this is president trump, for the first time in his life, being polite and responsible and keeping his droplets to himself. >> all right. >> this is the issue. >> let's -- >> this is not 6 feet. this is the problem. >> yeah. >> but here we go. let's move to china, which we had significant developments in the past 24 hours. china moved to exert stronger control over hong kong yesterday by imposing national security laws on the semi-independent territory, after waiting nearly two decades for hong kong's government to enact them. according to the "new york times," hong kong's pro democracy movement was taken by surprise as they question how to take on the chinese communist party directly. bloomberg

and certainly reporters on the hill are also expected to wear masks, to wear face coverings, and people are doing that, you know. and i think this idea about who to trust, who do you look to, i mean, this is where, you know, if you've got kids who are watching tv who don't fully understand what's going on and they're concerned for themselves or concerned about their own family, you know, the president of the united states at the office is supposed to carry a certain weight, a certain height, a certain -- you're supposed to be able to look up to that office to do simple things. joe biden was asked about this, you showed a little bit of it, by also used the word leadership in the context of this. that's the contrast that's being set up between these two candidates. and as reverend al pointed out, from young to our oldest americans, americans of who been around the block, who have seen a thing or two, who have lived through many different presidencies and who now vote in higher numbers than any other group, essentially, you know, they're watching this and they're making those decisions abo

people should be wearing masks. goes, themandating problem is if you have a mandate it has to be enforced in some ways. to enforce it it has to require some kind of course of effort with the state. public health requires cooperation of people because it is made up of two things. the public and health. if they don't see it as important to their health they will not comply as much. then you get the natural resistance and protest. that is also detrimental. the main thing that needs to happen is proper public health messaging. wearing a mask will not necessarily be mandated but onessary if we will protect another in the community. we are only in this together if we are moving in the same direction. ed, in melville, new york. go ahead. live -- i live in a metropolitan area in the northeast. we all want to get back to work. how will that be possible when the majority of us take pack commuter trains and subways? guest: that is one of the enduring questions for the pandemic and any future pandemic or epidemic. the public tr
