| Trump International Hotel in Washington, DC is being watched by the city government for non-compliance. |
There are 38 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico actively enforcing facial protection.
Donald J. Trump also has stated that Americans should wear facial masks in public after months of ignoring the calls to do so.
Bowser hit the roof when she peeped out social media this week. She found out that The Trump International Hotel was not enforcing the mask rule.
You want to know how..... Well, Trump decided to hold a fundraiser and video footage shows that many attending this fundraiser weren't wearing mask and failed to social distance. The Republican candidate for the open house seat in North Carolina Madison Cawthorn posted on social media his meeting with Trump and Mark Meadows, the former lawmaker who resigned to become the White House Chief of Staff.
Cawthorn, 24 became one of the youngest candidates running for the U.S. House of Representatives.
If elected, Cawthorn will become the youngest member to serve the House beating Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) by five years. Cawthorn will turn 25 later this year. His surprise victory rattled Republicans who endorsed his rival.
Cawthorn is paralyzed from the waist down after a serious car accident. He wrote about his survival.
Who also attended the rally without facial protection?
Trump's lawyer and loyalist Rudy Giuliani, Kayleigh McEnany, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Ronna Romney McDaniel were there without facial protection.

| Trump and Republicans are deliberately ignoring social distancing and facial mask requirements. |
That social media post has made the District of Columbia's Alcoholic Beverage Regulation Administration is now investigation whether Trump International is actively ignoring the rules.
Bowser said that companies that violate the district's rules could lose their liquor license and be shut down for failure to comply.
Cases of COVID-19 have risen in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. Bowser, Gov. Larry Hogan of Maryland and Gov. Ralph Northam of Virginia have said their areas seen spikes.
The D.C. mayor has no power to enforce mask-wearing at federal properties, like the White House.
Trump has been trying his hardest to distance himself from the coronavirus pandemic. He's been actively trying to paint his rival Democratic candidate Joe Biden as weak and ineffective.

| Muriel Bowser ain't playing. Residents in the city must wear mask. That includes Donald J. Trump. |
Trump continues to call the coronavirus, the "China Virus" and "Kung Flu" as a pejorative towards China and Asian Pacific union.
We are United in our effort to defeat the Invisible China Virus, and many people say that it is Patriotic to wear a face mask when you can’t socially distance. There is nobody more Patriotic than me, your favorite President! pic.twitter.com/iQOd1whktN— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 20, 2020
His expelling of Chinese diplomats from the embassies is only ratcheting up tension.
Here's the map.
Here's things to remember about the coronavirus.
1. Wash your hands frequently. Wash for at least 20 seconds (two Happy Birthday songs).
2. Do not touch your face (mouth, nose and eyes)
3. Cough into your elbow instead of your hands.
4. Keep a safe distance (at least 6 to 10 feet) from individuals. Businesses are now issuing social distancing and will have the right to refuse service if you're not adhering to the guidelines.
5. If you're sick, please stay home. You could spread the disease to others and trust me, you could face legal ramifications if you're sick and you deliberately showing up to work.
6. There is no treatment or cure for the COVID-19.
7. Follow state and federal laws regarding this. Some states have relaxed regulations but that doesn't mean you're fully able to return to normal life. You have to stay vigilant and remind yourself that you can still catch this despite social distancing and safe sanitation practices.
8. Do not hoard items like toilet paper, milk, eggs, bread, gloves, hand sanitizer, etc.
9. Use social media like Facebook Messenger, Meet, Zoom, Google Duo, Skype or social media to connect.
10. COVID-19 can live on surfaces for more than 72 hours. Including steel, plastic and cardboard.
11. A pandemic has no timeline. The coronavirus is new and scientists are trying to figure out how to combat this.
12. COVID-19 doesn't care about borders. The coronavirus spreads from human to human contact. We have no confirmation on how it made it to the United States. Don't believe what Donald J. Trump says about it coming from China. It was detected in China, then Italy and our first confirmed case was in January 2020 in the United States. We probably had thousands of people affected in 2019 and we just didn't know it.
13. If you deliberately infect other individuals, food and first responders, you will be charged with crime. So if people are trying to cough on you, sneeze on you, lick food products, lick toilet seats and refuse to wear masks where its required, they could face criminal charges. This is a controversial issue because some believe the mask isn't protecting them and some don't care about you or your family's health.
14. If you have signs of bluish lips or face, inability to wake or stay awake, new confusion, persistent pain in the chest, trouble breathing or blood in cough, call 9-1-1. There are mobile testing sites in your community but always check with a doctor first before getting a test at a public center. Most doctors will not take you openly without facial protection and confirmed symptoms.
15. Not all symptoms of COVID-19 are confirmed or denied. New issues keep showing up. So don't believe everything you've heard. The most common symptoms are noted above. Also please note that asymptomatic individuals are folks who have no symptoms but are spreading. Those are folks who look normal but have it and not showing signs yet.
According to the CDC, there is still not enough information on antibodies for COVID-19 and whether they can prevent someone from getting reinfected. It still recommends that people with a positive antibody test follow recommendations for protecting themselves and others.
The coronavirus doesn't care about your age, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, politics, economic or social standings. It doesn't care about anything. It's a living organism that causes mild symptoms that include: fever, sore throats, chills, respiratory issues, loss of taste or smell and other unknown symptoms. If you have a weak immune system or health issues, your risk increases.
Death does happen to at least 40% of those who are affected by COVID-19.
Healthy people can die from this. Take this seriously. You only have one life!
