Washington: Democratic Party presidential candidate Joe Biden said he is against participating in his second debate with Donald Trump next week if the president still suffers from Covid-19.

“I think if he still has Covid, we shouldn’t have a debate,” Biden said.

The first of the three presidential debates between Biden and Trump was held on September 29. The second debate is scheduled for October 15 in Miami and the final one on October 22 in Nashville, Tennessee. Biden said they should follow very strict guidelines.

“Too many people have been infected. It’s a very serious problem, so I will be guided by the guidelines of the Cleveland Clinic and what the docs say is the right thing to do,” he said.

Trump in a tweet on Tuesday said he is looking forward to the debate. “I am looking forward to the debate on the evening of Thursday, October 15th in Miami. It will be great!” said the president.
