Nancy Pelosi seen without mask inside San Francisco hair salon
BBC, 03 Sep 2020
US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi has said her visit to a San Francisco hair salon in breach of coronavirus rules was a "setup".
"I take responsibility for trusting the word of a neighbourhood salon," the top Democrat told reporters on Wednesday. "It turns out it was a setup."
She visited the eSalon SF on 31 August, despite a ban on such services indoors in the Californian city.
Mrs Pelosi was also pictured in the salon without a mask over her face.
The California lawmaker has often criticised President Donald Trump for refusing to wear a mask.
"I take responsibility for trusting the word of a neighbourhood salon that I've been to over the years many times," Mrs Pelosi said in a testy press conference in San Francisco when asked about the incident.
She said eSalon SF had told her they could accommodate one guest at a time.
