Trump plans a COVIDIOT party in Des Moines for 10,000
White House coronavirus experts have said central Iowa social gatherings should be limited to 25 people, but President Trump won't be heeding that advice at his rally Wednesday at the Des Moines International Airport.
The White House task force's latest report, dated Oct. 4, classifies the Des Moines area and Polk County as being in a “yellow zone” for transmission of the virus. The federal experts previously advised state officials that gatherings in “yellow zones” should be limited to 25 or fewer people.
The president has resumed campaign rallies this week, after revealing Oct. 2 that he had come down with COVID-19. Trump was hospitalized for three days and received experimental treatments that he says helped him make a quick recovery. His doctor said this week that he is no longer a threat to transmit the virus to others.
Lina Tucker Reinders, executive director of the Iowa Public Health Association, said she's concerned about the rally being held while the state continues to struggle with the virus.
She said Trump's staff members could be infectious if they were in contact with him recently. Members of the public also could unwittingly be carrying the virus, which can spread from people who aren't showing any symptoms.

White House has officially embraced “herd mentality,” and Trump’s been lying about WHO agreeing with him about whatever. Well... https://t.co/jx1JpVhLOk

It's like the rules don't apply to him.
