NBC News has announced that President Trump will participate in a town hall event on Thursday evening, at the same time that Joe Biden holds his own town hall to be broadcast on ABC.
The events are set to take place after the president rejected the Presidential Debate Commission’s decision to hold the debate scheduled for October 15 virtually, instead of in person. The Commission made its decision after Trump contracted coronavirus and was hospitalized with the illness.
Dr. Clifford Lane, Clinical Director at the National Institutes of Health, told NBC that he and Dr. Anthony Fauci have concluded the president is “not shedding infectious virus,” i.e. is no longer contagious. The NBC event will be held outdoors in compliance with guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
