Another of those mysteries (that never really was one) solved:

Trump’s campaign stopped COVID testing Tulsa rally staff after news stories about infections made president ‘livid’https://t.co/SEo024jX4U

Instead of distancing people, locking the event down, refusing to allow positive people to enter and a slew of other public health-friendly ideas, the campaign stopped testing.

“The campaign immediately clamped down on testing to prevent discovering who else might be infected,” said the book. “Word was passed throughout the Trump team that afternoon: remaining staff were not to get tested in Tulsa, but rather to wait until they returned home to headquarters in Arlington.”

“‘The president wants this to stop,’ a campaign staffer told an Oklahoma VIP who had arrived to get tested.”
