Coronavirus: White House task force members self-isolate

Three members of the White House coronavirus task force are self-isolating for two weeks after possible exposure to the illness.

Dr Anthony Fauci, who has become the public face of the fight against the virus in the US, is one of those who will go into quarantine.

The 79-year-old will work from home for the time being and will be regularly tested, the institute said.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) director Dr Robert Redfield and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) commissioner Stephen Hahn are also self-isolating.

In a statement, the CDC said Dr Redfield, 68, had no symptoms and was not feeling unwell, but would also be teleworking for two weeks after "low risk exposure" to someone at the White House. It is unclear who this person is.

And an FDA spokesman told Reuters news agency on Friday that 60-year-old Stephen Hahn was also self-isolating. He has also tested negative, the spokesman said.

Look, you can believe whatever you want. Masks do no good at all, but if wearing one makes you feel spiffy, go right ahead and continue in your delusion.

Peace out.

"“Modified”....he makes his own rules?? He wants to go to the office and possibly contaminate the whole damn place??"

Fauci literally declared himself having had a 'low-risk' contact and yeah, I believe he means to meet with people during his 'modified quarantine'.

“”Empirical evidence proves wearing mask works.””

They can’t say with any confidence that this is even airborne so that doesn’t make sense. Or is it to keep you from touching your face...then make wearing gloves mandatory. Isn’t that what the hand washing is all about?
