– With Donald Trump undergoing treatment for the coronavirus at a military hospital, Joe Biden’s campaign is looking to keep its focus on the nation’s response to the pandemic, Reuters reports. Former Vice President Biden, who tested negative for the virus on Friday, three days after debating with Trump, has repeatedly wished the president a speedy recovery. But Biden and his aides have used the president’s positive test to underline a consistent campaign message: Biden would handle the pandemic better than Trump. Deputy campaign manager Kate Bedingfield said on Sunday that Biden would continue to make the case for the remaining 30 days of the campaign that he has “the steady hand to get this country through this crisis.” “It’s a choice between two different styles of leadership and since the virus came to our shores back in the spring, Joe Biden has led by example,’ she told ABC’s This Week, citing the campaign’s use of masks, social distancing, and limits on the number of people at campaign events. “I think that that’s what the American people are looking for.’ The United States has recorded 7.4 million infections and more than 209,000 deaths in the pandemic, more than any other nation. Trump briefly had an opportunity to pivot the public’s focus away from COVID-19 when the death last month of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg gave him the chance to name a third lifetime appointment to the top court, before his own illness returned the spotlight. Biden is expected to campaign in Florida on Monday.
