President Trump appears ready to move on from a still-raging coronavirus pandemic. But the measures meant to protect him from catching the virus have scaled up dramatically.
As he seeks to insert rival Joe Biden's health into the presidential campaign, Trump has voiced escalating concern about how it would appear if he contracted coronavirus and has insisted on steps to protect himself, even as he refuses to wear a mask in public and agitates for large campaign rallies where the virus could spread.
But people familiar with the matter say the precautions also stem from Trump's own insistence that he not contract the disease and his heightened awareness of how a sick President would affect both the country's view of him and his ability to command a response to the pandemic.After Trump told aides at the beginning of the outbreak he must avoid getting sick at all costs, efforts to prevent him from contracting the virus have progressively become more intensive and wide-ranging.
