In large red type, the ad states: “We’re headed in the wrong direction,” as well as, “We were doing better when we were in this together.”

Health professionals, again, urge Trump to cancel rallies during COVID-19 surge
“During the final stretch of the 2020 campaign, President Trump is all-in on Wisconsin, planning to host his third rally in the last 10 ten days in La Crosse on Tuesday.
It’s another rally health professionals call “irresponsible” in their letter addressed to the campaign claiming it can result in a superspreader event.
“Returning to Wisconsin to repeat a reckless, risky event like a packed campaign rally is just calling for trouble,” said Dr. Robert Freedland, an ophthalmologist in La Crosse. He also serves on the Committee to Protect Medicare.
Last week Wisconsin recorded the deadliest of the pandemic, 145 people lost their lives over a 5-day period and the state continues to rank one of the worst in the country for positive coronavirus cases.”

“"Cases up because we TEST, TEST, TEST. A Fake News Media Conspiracy," Trump
tweeted on Monday. "Many young people who heal very fast. 99.9%. Corrupt Media conspiracy at all time high. On November 4th., topic will totally change. VOTE!"
While testing has increased significantly since the start of the pandemic, it is not enough to explain all the cases. Deaths and hospitalizations are also rising, which increased testing would not explain.
"While we are testing more than we were testing back in April or May, our testing has been reasonably flat over the last month, six weeks, up a little bit," Ashish Jha, the dean of the Brown University School of Public Health, told "CBS This Morning" on Monday. "What is really going on is a lot more infections."“

Fauci: Trump’s rapid recovery ‘amplifies’ misunderstanding of Covid-19
“Health officials have struggled to convey the seriousness of Covid-19 to many Americans. President Trump’s rapid recovery from the disease, while welcome by all, makes the challenge even more difficult, Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases acknowledged.
Trump’s quick bounce-back from his infection will likely underscore the mistaken belief some people have that the disease does not present significant health risks, Fauci said in an interview with STAT.
“We’re all glad that the president of the United States did not suffer any significant consequences of it,” Fauci said. “But … because he is such a visible figure, it amplifies some of that misunderstanding that people have that it’s a benign disease and nobody has anything to worry about.”“
