The hoax hits the task force

Members of a White House coronavirus task force were ordered to work from home after one person’s partner tested positive for the virus, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) said in an email to staff.

The email, first obtained by NBC News, said all staff on the supply chain sub task force who worked on a certain floor of a FEMA building in Washington, D.C., are required to telework starting Tuesday.

The person, described by FEMA as a “partner” who is a federal employee, visited FEMA headquarters in Washington.

The unit [...] is tasked with acquiring, shipping and distributing equipment to combat the coronavirus.

On Thursday, Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) urged Trump to tap a supply director. The president told him to stop “complaining”.
