He stressed that the guidance was released on Friday, "voluntary".

"you don't have to do it," He Said . "I don't think I'm going to do it. "

The guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the government's Public Health Advisory body, came as the US reported More Than 1,100 dead in a single day - the highest total for a 24-hour period anywhere in The World .

The United States has So Far 278,458 cases of Covid-19, and More Than 7,000 confirmed dead, according to Johns Hopkins University

New York state remains the worst affected Region, with nearly 3,000 dead, and the Governor of the state, Andrew Cuomo has appealed for help from other parts of the Country .

New York CIty mayor Bill de Blasio has already recommended that all New Yorkers wear face-covers

Until Now , the US health authorities had said that only the sick, or those who care for the patients, coronavirus, should wear masks, but recent studies suggest that the to a face is important in order to prevent accidental transmission.

"From the current studies, we know that the transfer of persons Without Symptoms plays a significant role in the spread of The Virus than previously assumed," said Mr Trump said on Friday.

However, he told reporters after the announcement of the CDC's new guide: "I don't just want to do it yourself. "

"Sitting in The Oval Office . I sort of see it for Myself . "

the Americans are now recommend, clean cloth or tissue, their faces covered, while in The Public . Officials have emphasized that the medical masks remain a scarce commodity, and should be left for the professionals.

The guide comes as The Number of cases worldwide past a million.

What The President has said?

Mr Trump announced the CDC leadership in the White house daily coronavirus briefing, but repeatedly stressed that the recommendation was "voluntary".

"not, you have to do it," He Said . "I have decided not to do it, but Some People may want it to do and that is OK. It may well be. Probably is. "

Asked why, He Said : "I just don't want to be there, [that] somehow, the beautiful, resolute desk, The Great Resolute Desk sitting in The Oval Office behind. "

"I don't think wearing a face mask as I greet the presidents, Prime Ministers , dictators, kings, Queens, and I don't know, somehow, I see it for me. I just don't know. Maybe I'll change my mind. "

The President was expressed to US, the illness, the readiness of the Federal government stimulus package and to interfere whether the pandemic, the 2020 presidential elections on 3. November.

Mr Trump insisted that his government's response has saved lives, and that the election will not be delayed.

The President - Without the mask

Why don't The President wear a mask?

This is what I wanted to know - especially after he had put out new guidelines, which go from the Federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) officials during a briefing: the People towel wear masks when outside. The CDC recommendations, a list that ranges from social distancing to hand wash, to help flatten The Curve , to the members of the White House Task Force on coronavirus.

But The President said he would not put on a mask: He Said it would be right for you to wear him in The Oval Office .

I thought, to explain that the in vain, and I pressed him on The Matter , asking him, more fully, why is he wearing a mask in the midst of a pandemic.

He smiled. "I was just tested," He Said . "I suppose I don't have The Virus , so I have to spread to worry about. "

For him, The Matter has been resolved. For many others it was not. You want to do everything you can to make the disease stop and, unlike The President , you will be on masks.

What is The Debate about the masks?

Covid-19 is carried in airborne droplets from People coughing or sneezing, but there is some dispute about how far People should distance themselves from each other, and whether masks are useful when you used by The Public .

The World health organization (WHO) advises that the normal face masks are only effective if you wash associated with the careful hands and the social distance, and So Far , it is not recommended, it is usually for healthy People .

But more and more health experts now say there are benefits. They argue that The Public use of masks can help you in the first place by the prevention of asymptomatic patients - People infected with Covid-19 but are not aware of, and do not display any Symptoms of unknowingly spreading The Virus to others.

masks may also help reduce The Risk of People The Virus is catch by droplets from another person sneezing or coughing, and People can learn how to put masks and take them properly, they argue.

Speaking on Friday during the briefing, Surgeon General Jerome Adams acknowledged that the US leadership had changed, based on the growing awareness that Covid-can be transferred 19 from asymptomatic People , "when you cough, sneeze or talk".

Local officials in New York City and Los Angeles , had urged the residents, their faces covered, if you are outside and in the vicinity of the other.

And on Thursday, officials in Laredo, Texas, has been issued means an emergency Ordinance, meaning that residents will face a $1,000 (£815) in order, if you don't cover your nose and mouth while outside.

But, there is also disagreement among the experts about the benefits of the use of cloth masks. European consultants say reusable cloth masks are not recommended and may even increase the chances of Infection .
