Going to the Trump rally in Tulsa? You must agree to COVID-19 disclaimer for a ticket

The presidential re-election campaign for Donald Trump is requiring supporters going to a rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to sign a coronavirus disclaimer to attend.

The campaign’s ticket registration site includes the disclaimer that says attendees “assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19” and agree to not hold the campaign liable for any illness or injury. The rally is scheduled for June 19 at the BOK Center, an arena with over 19,000 seats.

“By clicking register below, you are acknowledging that an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present,” the website says. “By attending the Rally, you and any guests voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19 and agree not to hold Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.; BOK Center; ASM Global; or any of their affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, or volunteers liable for any illness or injury.”

According to the Oklahoma health officials, the state has 7,626 confirmed coronavirus cases and 357 reported deaths. The state reported 146 new cases on Thursday.

Tulsa has had 1,372 confirmed cases, including 323 that are active, and 62 deaths, according to the Tulsa Health Department.
