SIOUX FALLS, S.D.–As Covid-19 continues to surge in Sioux Falls, a visibly frustrated Mayor Paul TenHaken has made an emotional plea about wearing face masks:

TenHaken says it’s ridiculous how political mask-wearing has become. He says its not a republican or democrat issue – It’s a public health issue.

Sioux Falls is in Minnehaha County. As of Monday, the county had 1,942 active cases of coronavirus, and 96 deaths.
