Comprehensive prevention of new coronary pneumonia
As the epidemic continues to spread across the United States, American infectious disease expert Fauci recommended on the 29th that people wear goggles in addition to masks.
Fauci said in an interview with the American Broadcasting Corporation (ABC): "In theory, people should protect all mucosal surfaces (eyes, nose, mouth), so if you have protective glasses, you should use them."

Fauci suggested that for those who want "perfect protection" from the new crown virus, they should wear goggles in addition to masks, but he admitted that this is not a "generally recommended" approach.
Fauci also said that he hopes that wearing a mask will also help limit the spread of flu in the fall. He said: "A certain degree of flu is inevitable. I hope that wearing masks and other coverings will not only protect us from the new crown virus, but also help us fight the flu."
Former U.S. Republican presidential candidate dies due to new crown
Participated in Trump campaign rally
According to U.S. media reports on the 30th, Herman Kane, a former Republican presidential candidate for the United States, died at the age of 74 after being infected with the new crown virus. US President Trump tweeted to mourn.
In 2019, Trump once considered nominating Kane to join the Fed. Although this nomination was eventually revoked, Kane still publicly supports Trump. Shortly before being diagnosed with the new crown virus, Kane participated in the Trump re-election campaign rally held in Tulsa, Oklahoma in June this year.
After the rally, Kane posted a photo of himself surrounded by other participants on Twitter, most of whom did not wear masks or other protective equipment.
On July 2, Kane's social media account issued a statement announcing that he was hospitalized. The statement stated that "it is impossible to determine where or how Kane contracted the new crown virus."
The Trump campaign said after Kane was diagnosed that he did not meet with Trump alone at the Tulsa rally.
