Three members of the White House coronavirus task force, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, placed themselves in quarantine after contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19.

One of Vice President Mike Pence’s closest aides tested positive for the coronavirus Friday, making her the second White House staffer known to have become infected this week and raising questions about keeping the president and his family safe.Friday, making her the second person who works at the White House complex known to test positive for the virus this week.

Miller had been in recent contact with Pence but not with the president and had tested negative a day earlier. She is married to Stephen Miller, a top Trump advisor. The White House had no immediate comment on whether Stephen Miller had been tested or if he was still working in the White House. The CDC and FDA would not disclose the identity of the person who had tested positive and with whom the agency leaders had come in contact.

Redfield sought to use the exposure as a teachable moment. The CDC statement said that if he must go to the White House to fulfill any responsibilities as part of the coronavirus task force, he will follow CDC practices for critical infrastructure workers. Those guidelines call for Redfield and anyone working on the task force to have their temperature taken and screened for symptoms each day, wear a face covering, and distance themselves from others.

FDA spokeswoman Stephanie Caccomo said Hahn tested negative for the virus after he learned of the contact. He wrote a note to staff on Friday to alert them.

Trump is insane. Yet the Press pretends that tRump is just another bad POTUS, under the guise of objectivity. Your pretensions makes you complicit in this INSANITY. 80k dead Americans, stop pretending...tell the truth. TrumpIsInsane VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare

Lol, corona news become more and more stupid!

Everyone will get it sooner or later, not really a story.

Almost as shocking as a 'plane' flying into the most heavily guarded airspace on the planet huh? 😎

That's a pleasant reminder honestly.

Selfishness!!! Not wearing a mask exposing others!

Why the hell is our media allowed to promote propaganda for the Chinese Communist Party?

Knowing what we know, how can a building with this much traffic be considered 'secure' from Covid? The disease isn't an armed man.

For being the most secure it sure is filled with lots of idiots

It was until trump moved in.

But let's head back to work tomorrow 👌

Only if idiots are in charge...

Rump and Pency are the main carrier OF COVID19

Bio weapon?

You don't mean it😐

And just like that *POOF* he's gone in a puff of manufactured smoke and BS. This vile man is up to his neck in subterfuge, and just like many of the worlds most corrupt Putin, Netanyahu, the Royal family and more, we'll barely ever see this beast again.

Tooda Maybe first hand experience will enlighten them a little. Wishful thinking.

It seems that it's far from over. When even in the White House, the virus is not contained, imagine the rest of America. But heyy no big deal, it's time to reopen the economy. American are all warriors, they will be fine.

So that’s two types of quarantine now then for the good doctor, having also been gagged from appearing at congress.

I want to know who is administering the tests and if there is a independent 3rd party retest? Just to be sure there is no political games going on.

Good. Hopefully Fauci stays there. FakeNews or for real? Truly missing the days when journalists still did their job. Image source YEHT

Scientists exposed - quarantine. Politicians exposed - fly around the country

Um nobody said less people were going to get it 🙄. Not even Fauci. You all must not be paying attention. It was just to SLOW THE SPREAD so as not to overwhelm medical systems. Geesh. Pay attention.

I hope Dr. Fauci has a swift recovery, but I also hope it forces Trump to wear a mask on national TV. That will be an amazing moment.

WELCOME TO MY. TRUMPANDEMIC THE 🎁 THAT KEEPS ON GIVING

Task force members in quarantine...pathetic. The WH will become a restricted area very soon.

Always unfortunate to see the LA times tweeter not reading the headline and getting the tweet wrong

Trump not in quarantine should be the headline

Maybe they are being silenced by the Don.

This illustrates exactly what ppl aren't getting from their president, it's real!

Nothing says ‘let’s open the country up’, than having your pandemic task force team under quarantine.

force yourself to a arrow in the throat your what american? acient times and surprise no hope for fake justice

I gotta feeling fauci is going to die or disappear with this

Quarantine AKA jail! hahahahaha

We love you, Doc!

Closer and closer, hopefully we get lucky.

Lol. Fake news

The optics if Fauci croaks will be horrible.

😩

According to the CDC and the Corinthians Task Force guidelines, everyone in the White House and West Wing should self isolate for 14 or 15 days if they are really serious about defeating the spread of Corvid 19.

Ridiculous carelessness

😲

You knew that Trump had to get rid of Fauci without firing him.. - Fauci and two other White House coronavirus task force members in quarantine

What a complete shitshow

POTUS can’t protect those visiting his house. Not following CDCgov guidelines

But Trump and his cult followers don't think it's real, so why quarantine them? Oh wait...is The Orange One scared he might catch the virus his legions say is fake? Is he not practicing what he preaches? Oh so it isn't so! realDonaldTrump CoronavirusLockdown

Guess Trump has broken the band up

Fauci, CDC chief, FDA head all forced to quarantine after exposure to COVID-19CDC Dir. Redfield is expected to self-quarantine for 14 days following exposure to an aide at the White House who tested positive for coronavirus, according to 2 admin. officials. Does anyone think TPTB are trying to shut people up, by either claiming or actual real exposure? They all walk around choosing not to wear masks as if they are invincible. It’s foolish and careless. How is it possible that there could be upwards of a dozen Covid possitives all around tRump and VP suck-ass yet they remain unaffected. As my gram always said “the devil looks after his own”
