“It will end when we get a vaccine, and that’s why everywhere I go, every appearance I make, I emphasize wearing a mask and trying to [practice] socially distancing,” McConnell said. “It is the only thing each of us can do to try to prevent the spread until we get a vaccine.”
McConnell has repeatedly highlighted that the Senate has largely remained in session (until leaving for August recess) by paying attention to health and safety protocols.
The reality is that masks are far more common on Capitol Hill than among Trump administration personnel, and it’s certainly not perfect. There have been more than 100 cases of COVID-19 among people on Capitol Hill, but so far that has been manageable.
A few members of the president’s cabinet were spotted in a review of photos and video footage from the South Lawn wearing masks, including Veterans Affairs Secretary Robert Wilkie and Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar, as well as Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao, who is McConnell’s wife.
The official proceedings of the Republican National Convention took place on Monday in Charlotte, N.C., with Trump stopping to give a speech to accept the nomination to the much smaller number of delegates physically present. In normal times, his Thursday night speech would have been in a large arena or stadium in North Carolina.
