      If it still needs saying: the VP debate must be held remotely. VP Pence can test negative for now but he was exposed. A plexiglass is no panacea to this. (If it has to be held in person, the minimum is both speakers are masked and no audience. But it should be remote.).https://twitter.com/HallieJackson/status/1313611970655006721 …

          As I understand it, both candidates will be required to wear nosegays of fragrant plants to combat the ill humors that are believed to cause the disease.

          FURIOUS that the commission is not requiring the candidates to wear rings and medallions inscribed with protective runes

          This is pointless to begin with, but there's no barrier in front of the moderator, so even with larger screens it's stupid.

          I agree with you. An in-person debate is unnecessary & irresponsible.
