This week House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) slammed President Trumps acceptance speech before the 2020 Republican National Convention for not having the audience engage in social distancing. Pelosi told MSNBC: what further evidence does anyone need that this president doesnt care less about the spread of this virus than to see what he did, vandalizing, by the way, the White House by bringing all those people there, no mask, no distancing, and the rest? He slapped science right in the face, and what a bad example that was.
Of course, there is a certain irony with Nancy being caught this week visiting a shuttered San Francisco hair salon without a face mask. Local regulations ordered the salon closed, but apparently those rules dont apply for Pelosi.
Yet, the event actually shows that Trump does care about preventing the spread of the coronavirus. There was nothing anti-science about the event.
Possibly Pelosi and her staff just dont read The New York Times or other media such as The Hill, an inside the beltway publication that is read extensively by members of Congress and their staff. Possibly she didnt realize that both party conventions were following the same rules. Five days before Trump gave his acceptance speech, the Times noted:
But despite the pandemic upending carefully laid convention plans for both parties, there is, against all odds, still a convention in town. It is modest, and contained to a Covid-tested bubble inside the Westin hotel and the Charlotte Convention Center down the street.
While I didnt attend the Republican Convention, friends of mine did, and they told me about how they got tested before they were allowed to attend Trump's acceptance speech. And this is standard practice even on the campaign trail. When Vice President Mike Pence visited Duluth, Minnesota last Friday, the day after the convention, Minnesota Republican US Senate candidate Jason Lewis told me that they tested him before letting him near Vice President Mike Pence.
You would think that testing people for the virus qualifies as relying on science. People wear masks primarily as a courtesy to not infect others, but if you tested daily, there is no real scientific reason for you to wear a mask. True, the tests can produce false negatives, but that occurs for people who have just been exposed and are not yet exhibiting symptoms, and those people are the ones who are spreading the infection to others.
According to the CDC, Based on current evidence, scientists believe that persons with mild to moderate COVID-19 may shed replication-competent SARS-CoV-2 for up to 10 days following symptom onset. On average, symptoms show up about five days after exposure, rarely as soon as two days after exposure.
These attacks on Trump follows a long string of similar criticisms by Democrats and the media over Trump not wearing a mask, but again they are the ones who ignore media reports and basic science. Since early May, Trump and those around him get tested at least once a day. Before that, they were tested once a week. If Trump and those around him receive tests daily, there is little reason for masks.
So, where are the fact-checkers? For a media that wont even call Joe Biden on his lies about Trump making racist comments after Charlottesville, it is obviously too much for them to actually step on the Democrats' mantra that Trump is anti-science, particularly when it would show that they are the ones pushing false information.

All you need to know about which side is anti science:
The gender battles.
Science based on all previous pandemics in history says that herd immunity is the only long term solution to life and society going on.
Fauci and the progressives are choosing to deny that science and insisting that humans can control nature.
They are also denying the science that shows why early treatment with HCQ and ivermectin can save lives.
Science says OrangeManBad.
If you’re not saying OrangeManBad, then you are not doing Science. Stop rejecting Science.
Question is will we become HUMAN GUENIA PIGS ON MANDATED VACCINE? And how it will play well with heavy pushed, always a guess FLU VACINE.
NOT FOR ME, NO WAY, NO HOW.
I find it Ironic that they tell us were not listening to the science but when hundreds of doctors and dozens of countries are using HCQ to treat Covid they say not to listen to that. Reason being if there is a treatment the pandemic is over and the country can go back to normal.
(The virus is the same size as a smoke particle ... can you smell smoke through a face mask? Science and LOGIC prevails, end of discussion).
. . . except that the claim is that virus-bearing droplets are the vector.I myself find it interesting that with non-bio toxins the dosage is the poison - but if you get a bad virus it would seem that dosage could be irrelevant because the virus reproduces geometrically.
