US President Donald Trump has reversed his denialist policy regarding the Covid-19 pandemic and urged people to wear masks, stating that the situation will worsen in the country.

"It will probably, unfortunately, get worse before it gets better. That's something I don't like to say about things, but that's how things are," said Trump, who urged people to wear masks. "Get a mask. Whether you like masks or not, they have an impact. They will have an effect, and we need all the ones we can get," he stressed.
