Three leading U.S. health officials have been cleared to rejoin White House meetings following a period of self-isolation after exposure to the CCP virus, while Vice President Mike Pence said he will keep his distance from President Donald Trump after his adviser tested positive for the virus last week.
In a joint statement Tuesday, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Robert Redfield, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Stephen Hahn, and Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), said that as they are considered essential workers, they will rejoin White House meetings when necessary provided they remain asymptomatic, wear masks, and practice social distancing.
