"If I'm with soldiers — I don't want to spread anything," Trump told Fox News' Sean Hannity on Thursday."A lot of it is you spreading, not them spreading."The comments came after the president made fun of former Vice President Joe Biden for donning a facial covering during a recent campaign event."I think it makes him feel good," he said.
"Wearing a mask should be a health issue, not a political issue," Dr. Marissa Levine, a professor at the University of South Florida, told Business Insider this week.
