Disinfectant, temp checks, masks: Here's what Biden's camp is reportedly doing to shield him from coronavirus
Biden campaign going to great lengths to keep the Democratic nominee safe
By Ronn Blitzer | Fox News
At 77 years of age, former Vice President Joe Biden and his campaign are taking great measures to protect his health during the coronavirus pandemic, keeping the Democratic presidential nominee as isolated as possible during his travels.
According to a new report from Politico, Biden’s campaign is fastidious in maintaining the cleanliness of its candidate’s environment, making sure his planes and cars are scrubbed and disinfected before he enters, microphones wiped in advance, and event attendees kept in place using markers to maintain distance.
“There was a ton of effort into how to do it in a Covid-safe way,†Rev. Jonathan Barker, pastor at Grace Lutheran Church in Kenosha, Wis., said about a meeting with Biden. “They actually had a measuring tape and they were measuring where people could be and using dots to mark the places.â€
It was not enough that the people who entered the church had masks; they had to replace the ones they wore with N95 masks given to them before they were led to their seats one at a time.
At events where the press is invited, reporters are screened via temperature checks and instructed where to be positioned to keep their distance.
