Official: White House didn’t want to tell seniors not to fly

9:05 p.m. EST

NEW YORK (AP) — A federal official says the White House overruled health officials who wanted to recommend that elderly and physically fragile Americans be advised not to fly on commercial airlines because of the new coronavirus.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention submitted the plan this week as a way of trying to control the virus, but White House officials ordered the air travel recommendation be removed.

That’s according to a federal official with direct knowledge of the plan who did not have authorization to talk about the matter and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

Ahhhh....that maybe explains Fauci’s strange statement...regarding WH.

I saw where he said, to Chris Wall@ss, that elderly should not be in crowds.....including flying on an airplane.

If this is true, it is this stuff that gets us Biden.

The White House needs to stop worrying about getting businesses upset.

I’m really worried Trump is more worried about re-election than anything else
