District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser on Sunday encouraged those who voted in the 2020 presidential election to get tested for COVID-19, yet she has been noticeably quiet on the thousands of Americans who – at the risk of spreading the coronavirus – participated in public celebrations of Joe Biden’s projected victory. “Clearly you made a plan to vote in last week’s election so what’s your plan to get tested this week?
Lines a bit longer this week so plan ahead but we’ll work hard to get you results faster than a national election result,” the D.C.
Mayor tweeted, making a jibe at the drawn-out process of Tuesday’s election. Her tweet included a graph with a list of addresses for various testing sites around D.C.
