Larry Kudlow, President Trump's economic adviser, said on Sunday people who plan on attending Trump's campaign rally in Tulsa should wear a mask.

The event will be held on Saturday at the BOK Center, an indoor arena that holds about 19,000 people. Health experts are urging people to avoid large gatherings amid the coronavirus pandemic, and during an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper, Kudlow said it is important to "observe the safety guidelines" like social distancing and wearing face coverings in "key places."
