White House requires masks in West Wing

(AP) — President Donald Trump is insisting that his administration has “met the moment” and “prevailed” on coronavirus testing.

The president’s latest assertions come as governors across the country continue to call on the federal government to do more to boost the testing supply to meet the requirements needed to begin “reopening” the nation.

The White House itself has become a potent symbol of the risk facing Americans everywhere by belatedly ordering everyone who enters the West Wing to wear a mask. That directive comes after two aides tested positive for COVID-19 late last week. Trump himself continues to appear in public without a mask, as he did during his news conference Monday.
