EXCERPT:
SLAVITT: “Well, look, I think people who have been vaccinated are starting to get a little bit impatient with what can I do? You know, Can I go indoors? Can I take masks off, et cetera? And I think the CDC is getting there step by step. So, right now, you can do pretty much everything outdoors without a mask. You can do everything indoors if you’re around vaccinated people without a mask.”
BERMAN: “So why were they all wearing masks in there yesterday?”
SLAVITT: “Well, I don't think -- I’m not sure that the president is the average person. I personally think there’s a lot of protections around the president. Why does he need lots of Secret Service agents. Why do they belt and suspender everything with the president? Because he’s a very important person and I think you shouldn’t take your mark just by what you see in the Oval Office. I think most people -- if you are indoors around other people that are vaccinated, CDC says it’s OK. And I think you should listen to the CDC on that.”
