Pence stays away from White House after aide tests positive for coronavirus - POLITICO

Vice President Mike Pence skipped in-person meetings over the weekend and didn’t work out of the White House, according to an administration official — a change in routine that comes days after his top spokesperson tested positive for Covid-19.

Pence tested negative for the coronavirus on Sunday, the official added.

“Vice President Pence will continue to follow the advice of the White House Medical Unit and is not in quarantine,” Devin O’Malley, a Pence spokesman, said in a statement on Sunday evening. “Additionally, Vice President Pence has tested negative every single day and plans to be at the White House tomorrow.”

So far, two White House staffers — one of President Donald Trump’s military valets, who serves him meals and drinks, and Katie Miller, Pence’s press secretary — have tested positive for the virus, launching it into Trump’s inner circle and the crowded halls of the West Wing.

On a Sunday news program, senior adviser Kevin Hassett called the White House a “scary” place to go to work right now, given the recent diagnoses and the threat of the virus. The two infections come as the president has been nudging governors and states to reopen their economies as quickly as possible, despite the continuing spread of the disease throughout the U.S.
