Joe Biden says the Democratic National Convention may need to take place virtually as a result of the deepening coronavirus outbreak. He also says he intends to wear a mask in public.
Democrats had originally planned to hold the Milwaukee convention in July with the aim of building early momentum that could bring the party together in the bid to unseat President Trump from the White House.
But party officials postponed the convention for a month, which means it will take place — whether in person or otherwise — just a week before the Republicans hold their nominating gathering in Charlotte.by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as a measure to slow the spread of the fast-spreading coronavirus.
Trump, however, said he does not plan to heed the federal government's guidance by wearing a face covering himself. "He may not like how he looks in a mask," Biden said of the president, saying it is a matter of following science.Biden said Sunday he recently rang up Sanders as a courtesy to inform him that he was beginning the process of vetting potential vice presidential candidates, despite the fact that the Democratic race for president is not over.
"I was basically apologizing and making it clear I wasn't trying to be presumptuous, in any way push him," Biden said."And he said he appreciated that."
