Three Members of White House Virus Task Force in Quarantine

Three members of the White House Coronavirus task force have gone into quarantine after coming into contact with someone infected.

Dr. Anthony Fauci of The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the leading member of the task force, is one of the three in quarantine. The institute said Dr. Fauci will work from home, but would go to the White House if absolutely necessary, taking precaution.

Other task force members in quarantine include Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the CDC and FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn. All three will be tested regularly.

VP Mike Pence’s press secretary tested positive for Coronavirus on Friday, making her the second White House employee known to test positive in a week.
