I don't get why people are getting all riled up by this. Of course the White House will try to put a positive spin on things, the same would have been done by the Republican party (or any other political party in the world). As noted a

Well if it’s not 100% we should carefully balance the actual benefits it provides vs the freedoms we are asking people to give up and the associated inconveniences. And before you tell me “oh it’s just a minor inconvenience”, no it’s not. I

They don’t because there isn’t. It’s just idiotic medical security theater. Unless the right masks are worn correctly 100% of the time, which lets be honest is not happening. I guess this is how superstitions start in a sense…
