The Transportation Security Administration released information to San Jose (California) Mayor Sam Liccardo on Thursday about the three officers at Mineta San Jose International Airport who recently tested positive for the novel coronavirus.
The three agents worked p.m. shifts at checkpoint B in the airport's Terminal B during their most recent days at work, according to the TSA. The three agents last worked Feb. 21, Feb. 26 and March 2, respectively, and two were stationed at the checkpoint's X-ray machines, scanning luggage and performing patdowns as needed. The third agent spent their shift as a travel document checker and screened entrants at the checkpoint's known crew member access point.
"TSA continues to monitor the situation involving three of our officers who work at Mineta San Jose International Airport and have recently tested positive for (coronavirus)," the TSA said in a statement.
The agency did not confirm how many agents and air passengers may have been exposed to the virus during their shifts. Airport officials said Thursday that janitorial staff will increase deep cleanings to daily in an effort to stop the virus' spread. The airport also plans to expand training for its janitorial staff.
Santa Clara County public health officials have, as of Wednesday night, confirmed 48 positive coronavirus cases in the county, including the Bay Area's only death so far due to the virus.

I went through the San Jose airport March 2, but in arrivals, not departures.
So how many grandmas and handicapped passengers did they breathe on while patting down as suspected radical Islamic terrorists?
TSA itself has been a national infection since Day 1.

These people feel up total strangers all day for a living.
Well said.
Uhhhh, so what are the new details? What shifts they worked? That’s it?
I was thinking about this today while my wife and I were at the Supermarket. TSA agents, supermarket cashiers, train conductors, basically anyone who has to deal with large numbers of the public on a daily basis has a far greater risk than I do spending most of the day with just my wife. And if one of them does get infected they also have a much greater chance to spread it.
Will you be walking home?
I always ask 'em if they're gay.
“I always ask ‘em if they’re gay.”

Garden variety all-purpose pervs, they’ll go for any body.
Lol...that would be a great way to start off the legal molestation.
unmentioned detail. All three of their names probably sound a lot like the name of the airport
José, Hose B, and Hose C?
We live in interesting times. /Captain Obvious
That’s it. Previously they said a “TSA person at the airport.”
I surprised they put out as much info as they did yesterday. Generally nothing is said at all.
Great way to transmit all kinds of desease all day long regardless of the gloves they wear. Diseases will just stick to the gloves.
Lmao!
Ask them to take off their gloves because they’re a sure part of the disease transmission process.
Maybe TSA should wash their hands after getting a feel?
Worthless bastards.
