President Trump called Arizona “a model for applying a science-based approach to the decreasing cases and hospitalizations without implementing a punishing lockdown.” He said Governor Ducey’s approach should be used by other states—but here’s what’s really happening in Arizona:
Gov. Ducey is rushing reopening without adequate testing and contact tracing.
He’s withholding support for increased testing and making local leaders plead for it.
He’s refusing to implement a mask mandate and turning his back on older Americans and those at greater risk.

Here’s how COVID-19 affected Arizonans under the Trump—Ducey model:
- An infection rate—still—of nearly 20%
- The fifth-highest number of current hospitalizations in the country
- More than 4,000 deaths from COVID-19
- More than 183,000 cases
- Lengthy delays in test results

The truth is that President Trump could have acted months ago to curb this pandemic—it's obvious he still hasn’t learned his lesson. He continues to ignore the warnings of health experts and we're all paying the price. https://medium.com/@JoeBiden/statement-on-donald-trumps-misleading-claims-about-arizona-c2bb98675242
