NEW: Leading members of the coronavirus task force warned White House officials about the health risks of holding large-scale indoor campaign rallies and advised against the mass gatherings, according to two people familiar with the discussions.

Asked whether the briefings will ever return, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters Friday it was unlikely and that instead she will be the one to present new information after consulting with Birx.When asked if he would, Fauci said “of course not” given his age and cautioned anyone going to wear a mask, though the Trump campaign says that will not be required.

“There have been regular conversations between senior administration officials and the campaign about steps and precautions that can be taken,” one White House official said. “Nobody’s taking this lightly.”in COVID-19 cases, with a 100 percent spike in Tulsa County just this week, the highest in the state. One of the main reasons the campaign decided to hold the rally in the Sooner State is that it is now in phase three.

To drive home that message, the vice president spent time outside of Washington this week mingling with scores of people at events that were tailored to look and feel as much like pre-pandemic life as the places he visited allow. Almost no one in the audience wore a mask. Pence did interviews with local reporters who weren’t wearing masks. His staff and security detail didn’t wear masks. And the guides on his tour of a manufacturing plant weren’t socially distanced or wearing masks.

If I were your advisor, (from President TRUMP), I would say to that group that this opinion should be made more extensive, that is, to other groups that have been very active lately.

There are many sectors trying to neutralize President Trump's campaign team, meaning that holding or conducting large-scale indoor campaign rallies would increase the risk of Covid-19 contagion, I don't think the president is going to go into that game.

President Trump and his campaign team should ignore 'the main members of the coronavirus workforce.' I will explain why ....

Because he only cares about being re-elected not about his constituents DumpTrump2020

Disaster waiting to happen. Hope they got ventilators.

Biden holds a rally

And.....Do your job FlattenTheFear

Biden holds a rally

Forget the politics for a moment: How are local health officials allowing such a large gathering to happen during a pandemic?

But it’s no big deal to have huge protests, marches, rallies, looting, etc. & no one says a damn word about Covid. 🤔 It’s just a bad thing when the rallies are centered around Trump & conservatives. Right? What a bunch of bigoted hypocrites you are.

“According to two people familiar with the discussions” = NBC making it up. Orange man bad!

Making America ashamed, NO LIVES matter for him.

the History US do not for the guys or any one want to abolish them. it's took form from the past and the people US must know the US History, if any one ask for abolishing them so please get out US because that one is not people US citizenship.

They absolutely should hold the rally! I consider this event as 'Darwin's Waiting Room'

Just print the “rally participant tests positive for covid” article now. We all know it’s coming. Not a whole lot of variety in what you guys report on, it’s the same thing over and over.

It’s not a rally it’s a peaceful protest.

nbc

NBC News, You know there is no way Trump will cancel that rally, even though many attending may get sick and die, the bottom line with Trump is reelection and the death toll means absolutely nothing to him.

My thing is they never made a big deal about the marching and looting or those multiple funerals for George Floyd.

Trump, et al, 'don't believe in science' because it interferes with their amoral and scandalous activities. If you believed in science & you were advised against the activity, your conscience should force you would change the plans. Trump continues to deny; all about adulation

NOW they speak out?

Trump's Coronapalooza in Tulsa, don't miss it. Come for the hate, go home with the Rona!

No cult ever ends well

NBC 'news'. Activists that use 'news' as unregistered Democrat donations Even with you mass thieves and mass liars they're going to be voted out en masse. Your time is over. You squandered it. You're. Laughing stock. Your employees should hide their faces in shame

Ok, so is realDonaldTrump going to be in a bubble while trying to exterminate his loyal subjects?

Piss off

Did you write the same articles about the riots?

Wow, that was unexpected.

COVID19 was over the minute you media morons cheered for protests. Find something else to fear monger with, COVID19 is over.

Ooh, listen, it's NBC!

Of course the obstructionist are against freedom, we know....

LOL!!! FakeNews media is laughable. Remember NBC warning George Floyd rioters about corona?😂😂😂

Do you think Trump finishes a working day, heads to the bathroom, looks at his goblin reflection, and says: “Fuck. When I get back to planet wankcloth, they ain’t gonna believe what I did down here.” Follow me for more musings about planet Wankcloth.

It appears the virus had a very good chance of exploding.

If you look at the pictures of Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx you can tell that Trump is all wrong. Their facial expression tells it all.

Do nothing hypocritical msnbc king of fake news

Did they have anything to say about the thousands who marched and looted? Total hypocrisy

AL Sharpton going to speak at an event today in Tulsa and CNN says nothing amid Covid19 concerns

realdonaldtrump

Why bother telling Trump anything? He’s surrounded by all the advisors & medical experts he could want but refuses to listen. This rally on Saturday taking place in an enclosed arena is a terrible mistake. Oklahoma has already had a large COVID19 spike & this could be disastrous

TrumpDerangementSyndrome is not being able to see the hypocrisy of this news segment.

Just look the picture the faces of horror and disgust from the medical doctors MAGA

Trump doesn’t care how many Americans die as long as trump gets re-elected President

I can almost see a highly profitable class action lawsuit: Tulsa Residents vs city of Tulsa or Mayor of Tulsa. Did all residents of Tulsa sign a waiver for this impending health catastrophy?

Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx both vocalized concerns internally in the last week about the safety of holding a rally with as many as 19,000 of people in an enclosed arena in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Saturday.
