Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar largely punted on Sunday when confronted by CNN anchor Jake Tapper over presidential son Eric Trump’s insane claim that the coronavirus will “magically” disappear after Election Day.
“And guess what? After Nov. 3, coronavirus will magically all of a sudden go away and disappear and everybody will be able to reopen,” Trump added about a virus that has killed nearly 90,000 Americans. Azar spoke of the need for “balanced information” as public health leaders present facts to allow states to reopen businesses and public spaces before taking a both-sides approach to Eric Trump’s conspiracy theorizing.
“But you would agree that governors did not take these steps to shut down their states because they were trying to hurt President Trump,” the State of the Union host wondered aloud. “They were trying to protect the lives of their citizens.”
