CARSON: Going to a rally, if you're a healthy individual and you're taking the precautions that have been placed out there, there's no reason that you shouldn't go. However, if you belong to one of those categories of high risk, obviously, you need to think twice about that.
Q: You seem to be putting all the responsibility back on individuals, saying that they should be thinking for themselves. What broader measures need to be taken?
CARSON: Those recommendations will be coming out from the CDC. Right now, the recommendation is as I just prescribed--go about your normal daily activities if you are healthy. If you are not healthy, think very seriously about attending places where there are crowds.
