Three members of the White House coronavirus task force, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, have placed themselves in quarantine after contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19.
Their concern about infection is another stark reminder that not even one of the nation’s most secure buildings is immune from the virus.
Fauci is the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and is nationally known for his simple and direct explanations about the coronavirus and the disease it causes.
Also quarantining are the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Dr. Robert Redfield, and the commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, Stephen Hahn.
