Statement from Dr. Tom Frieden, President and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives, an initiative of Vital Strategies, on President Trump’s COVID-19 Diagnosis

This event demonstrates that we need a comprehensive approach to COVID-19. Testing does not replace safety measures including consistent mask use, physical distancing, and hand washing.

Learning more about when President Trump and others with whom he had contact last tested negative and first tested positive will help understand this outbreak and limit the risk of further spread.”
