As President Trump continues to downplay the need for increased Covid-19 testing across the country, White House officials were told on Monday they will now be subjected to random testing for the virus
During a routine press briefing late last month, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said Trump is sometimes tested “multiple times a day” for the deadly virus. The president later said, “I do probably on average a test every two, three days.”
The White House currently relies on a portable coronavirus test made by Abbott Laboratories, which produces results in five minutes and can be conducted in-house by medical unit employees. But the White House stated that there was “no risk of exposure to the president or the vice president.” Over the weekend, Trump rebuked the federal government’s top infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci for claiming in congressional testimony that Americans are grappling with a rise in cases because only half of the U.S. economy closed down earlier this year.
