Vice President Mike Pence delivered false statements at the first press conference for the White House Coronavirus Task Force in two months on Friday.The vice president did not wear a mask, while Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx did.
"We want the American people to understand that it's almost inarguable that more testing is generating more cases," Pence said, despite medical experts refuting that claim.In the first White House Coronavirus Task Force press conference in two months, Vice President Mike Pence stuck to happy talk and falsely claimed the United States has "flattened the curve" as new cases rise.
Pence, who once claimed the coronavirus pandemic in the US would be "behind us" by Memorial Day, described the nation's testing and PPE efforts as "a national accomplishment," and eschewed optimism despite what he described as a "precipitous" increase in cases in the South. Pence falsely attributed the rise in cases to increased testing.
"We want the American people to understand that it's almost inarguable that more testing is generating more cases," Pence said. as evidence that increased testing is not inflating the number of cases.actual number of COVID-19 infections is likely 10 times higherPence also falsely claimed that the US has "flattened the curve" for new cases, despite overall new daily cases going up toward the end of June.
Pence was flanked by Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx, who have had far less visibility at White House events recently and were appearing in their official capacity on the task force before the press for the first time in two months.Do you have a personal experience with the coronavirus you'd like to share?

Casually forget to mention we also performed the highest number of tests? Guess that doesn’t work for panic porn.
Uggg, I thought he is a Christian? What happened to 'Thou shalt not kill' and 'Thou shalt not bear false witness'
Games with charts
DeniseDM5 Who woke him up after 2 months?
ateacher97 Welcome to Texas, Pence. Covid is flourishing here in the heat. Maybe you can take a little souvenir home with you. Be sure and brief trump up close and personal when you get back.
Tell the Truth. Truth leads to Cooperation, Cooperation leads to Peace 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
ateacher97 And this is why America is under attack! End the trump/gop misinformation campaign! Ignorance, defiance, incompetence is deadly! Bring back science, data, research by voting blue! This is CRIMINAL!
Everyone Please Stay Home!!!
'Flattening' is a concept relative to what would have happened without the measures having been taken. Before writing an article, you should understand that.
Pence is actually trying to use the First Amendment to justify the trump political events that put people's lives at risk because they lacked social distancing and masks. Both were held in hot spots, which means they threw gas on active fires.
Then of course 'Nurse Ratched' with a scarf (oh I mean Dr Birx) steps up to the podium & congratulates VP Pence on his 'great presentation'. She makes me wanna throw up!

YesRisingDotCom He can't see the graphs? Is he blind? No wonder we are where we are. He is in charge and he won't SEE THE FACTS!
The BS.., Pence is unreal!
He just said our hope and 'PRAYERS' are with the families who lost loved ones. Evangelical vote? Check!
🤦🤦
VP Pence fixed the COVID problem for all American Looks good now!
Has BS even looked at the charts?
And the hypocrite is still not wearing a damn mask!
Forgive me, but exactly when did we overrun hospitals, ICUs or ventilators on anything close to a national scale ? Or even outside NYC ?
Pence just humble/pious in his dishonesty. Trump just outright blatant with his lying. But both the same results.
I was wondering if my ears were hearing things others do not hear!I guess I am fine!

Deaths are still decreasing.
Because of greatly increased testing.
