A medical supply company said that it discarded the products it had produced during President Trump's visit to its headquarters in Maine last week

Puritan Medical Products said it had decided ahead of Trump's visit on Friday to throw away the swabs it produced due to the number of people who would be visiting the facility, including government officials, security personnel and the media."Production was limited on selected machines to a reduced 15-minute demonstration period during which the President was actively touring our manufacturing floor," the company said in a statement posted on Twitter.

Production of medical supplies has been a key issue in the US amid the coronavirus pandemic, which created an unprecedented demand for various items, including personal protective equipment and the swabs used to conduct coronavirus tests. During his visit to the facility on Friday, Trump flouted his administration's social distancing guidelines, at one point posing for a photograph with an employee at the factory while neither he nor the woman wore face masks.
