Surfside Mayor Charles Burkett said his town is testing the air quality amid health concerns following the collapse of a 12-story condo tower.

Burkett also told host Shepard Smith that the first responders tending to the collapse all had protective equipment. Last week, Smith asked Burkett whether the responders had such equipment after seeing some without face coverings.

To be sure, Florida Fire Marshal Jimmy Patronis said in a separate interview on Monday that there have been instances in which some first responders were not wearing face coverings. "It kind of sometimes can be a little deceiving when they're on the pile, if they're in the open air, if they're working on moving large debris, there's a little more of a less-masked environment," Patronis told Smith.
