trump and Pence Won't Be Tested After Meeting With Infected Brazilian Official

The New York Times@nytimes·1h
President Trump will not be tested for the coronavirus after coming into contact with a Brazilian official who tested positive for the virus just days after a Mar-a-Lago visit, the White House said on Thursday

Seriously? They need to be tested. But I'm okay with it if it means we get President Pelosi.

not release news of a positive result. It doesn't fit their narrative. Instead they'll curtail activities in the guise of general safe no-crowds practice and hope it's not noticeable.
