No Social Distancing at Trump’s July 4th Event

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) said the thousands of people who attend the July 3 celebration for Independence Day at Mount Rushmore with President Trump will not be required to practice social distancing despite an increase in coronavirus cases across the country, NBC News reports.

Said Noem: “We will have a large event at July 3rd. We told those folks that have concerns that they can stay home, but those who want to come and join us, we’ll be giving out free face masks, if they choose to wear one. But we will not be social distancing.”
