All bullshit all the time

FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn will self-quarantine for 14 days after exposure to White House spokesperson Katie Miller, who tested positive for Covid-19 on Friday, three administration officials said.

The White House is conducting contact tracing and making a case-by-case determination on who else should self-isolate based on exposure to Miller. Hahn is asymptomatic and tested negative for the virus on Friday, two senior administration officials said.

Isn't it interesting how they're doing all the things that need to be done while still telling the rest of us we don't need more testing or contact tracing to get back to business?

Miller, a top spokesperson for Vice President Mike Pence, was in White House coronavirus task force meetings with Hahn and other senior administration health officials. She is married to White House senior adviser Stephen Miller, who writes the majority of Trump’s speeches and is in constant proximity to President Donald Trump and White House advisers Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump.

Hahn is a pivotal player in the administration's coronavirus response.

"In the span of hours, the coronavirus task force was likely exposed, the vice president was definitely exposed, and a top health official can't come into the office," one senior administration official said. "It's a textbook case of why we can't rush to re-open."

Several health officials told POLITICO that Friday's developments are a reminder that the nation's coronavirus pandemic is still raging and is poised to affect the highest levels of government.

Already has done.

You have to wonder...is this why Trump announced closing down the task force? Hoping this would quietly pass by? Then when it became evident it was a story and closing down the task force was getting backlash, he immediately back-tracked? I'd say, quite likely.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
