U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday urged Americans to wear masks to prevent the spread of coronavirus, a full reversal of his initially dismissive attitude toward face coverings.<\/p>\n

During an interview, CBS News Catherine Herridge asked the president whether there should be a federal mandate on wearing masks or if it should be left to governors to decide. Trump responded that governors go by guidelines set by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and \u201cthats good.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked whether he would urge Americans to wear masks, Trump replied: \u201cIf its necessary, I would urge them to wear a mask and I would say follow the guidelines.\u201d<\/p>\n

Redfield said the coronavirus outbreak could be brought under control if all members of the public wore masks for four to eight weeks.<\/p>\n

Trumps circle is routinely tested for coronavirus, and visitors and staff to the White House are often seen wearing masks. Redfield said that those factors could allow Trump to justify not wearing a mask, but that the president should still don one to encourage others to follow.<\/p>\n

CDC officials also wrote in an editorial<\/a> on Tuesday that cloth face coverings were vital to fighting coronavirus, and could be particularly effective when all members of a community wore them. The editorial, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, said wearing masks could both protect wearers and prevent those with coronavirus from spreading infected droplets.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen asked to wear face coverings, many people think in terms of personal protection,\u201d the authors wrote. \u201cBut face coverings are also widely and routinely used as source control.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump had long refused to wear a mask, even mocking<\/a> his Democratic Read More \u2013 Source<\/a>
