Protestors should consider getting themselves tested for the novel coronavirus, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended. CDC Director Dr Robert Redfield recommended that all protestors be tested for the novel coronavirus. Pocan asked Redfield if the federal health agency had advised law enforcement against using tear gas as the pandemic rages on. 'Instead, we wanted to present a narrative that prioritizes opposition to racism as vital to the public health, including the epidemic response. 'We believe that the way forward is not to suppress protests in the name of public health but to respond to protesters demands in the name of public health, thereby addressing multiple public health crises.'
