White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Tests Positive For COVID-19

On Sunday, Principal Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announced that she had tested positive for COVID-19, just days after White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki announced that she had been infected with the virus. “This afternoon, after returning from the President’s trip to Europe, I took a PCR test. That test came back positive,” Jean-Pierre said in a statement. “I last saw the President during a socially distanced meeting yesterday, and the President is not considered a close contact as defined by CDC guidance. I am sharing the news of my positive test today out of an abundance of transparency.” “Thanks
