Does photo show Biden in plane without mask during pandemic? Fact Check

A widely shared photo claims to show presidential candidate Joe Biden on a plane next to a staffer while both not wearing a mask.

FALSE

An example of the photo is below after being posted on Twitter.

This photo has been shared by a number of high follower accounts on social media, including the former National Intelligence Director Richard Grenell (above.)

However, while the photo itself is genuine, it was taken in November 2019, meaning it was taken before the COVID-19 pandemic. It is captioned –

Yamamoto and Biden huddle on a flight to South Carolina in November 2019

As such, it does not show Biden failing to wear a mask during the COVID-19 pandemic.
