It appears the White House wants to start promoting masks again.
Shortly after Jill Biden tested positive for Covid-19, the White House announced Joe Biden would start wearing mask despite testing negative for Covid-19.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stated Biden “will be masking while indoors and while around people, in alignment with CDC guidance.”
Jean-Pierre also stated Biden will undergo regular Covid testing as well.
Here’s the moment she said it:
🚨Joe Biden will be officially wearing a mask again
Alex Jones was right
They’re bringing back masks

Masks do not work, but Biden is announcing he will be wearing a mask. This is true mental illness. The country has lunatics at the helm.

Here’s what The Hill reported:
President Biden tested negative for COVID-19 on Tuesday and will wear a mask while around others indoors after first lady Jill Biden tested positive for the virus a day earlier, the White House said.
The first lady is experiencing “mild symptoms” after testing positive Monday, press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters. She will remain in Delaware to quarantine.
The president was tested for the virus Monday and again Tuesday, and he tested negative both days. He is not experiencing any symptoms, Jean-Pierre said.
Biden “will be masking while indoors and while around people, in alignment with CDC guidance,” Jean-Pierre said, and he will not wear a mask when he is sufficiently distanced from others and while outdoors.
The White House has said he will otherwise maintain a “regular” testing cadence in light of the first lady’s positive test.
The president is scheduled to leave Thursday for a trip to New Delhi, India, for the Group of 20 Summit. He will remain there for three days before traveling to Vietnam to meet with leaders there.
Here comes the tyranny! The Biden regime is going to run the entire COVID playbook again: lockdowns, masks, booster mandates, everything.
Do not comply. https://t.co/Yh9mOGaPkC
