CNN: Pence will not self-quarantine and plans to be at the White House Monday



(CNN)Vice President Mike Pence is not planning to enter self-quarantine after his press secretary tested positive for coronavirus on Friday and plans to be at the White House on Monday, a Pence spokesperson said on Sunday.

Pence spokesperson Devin O'Malley said the Vice President "will continue to follow the advice of the White House Medical Unit and is not in quarantine."

"Additionally, Vice President Pence has tested negative every single day and plans to be at the White House tomorrow," O'Malley said in a statement.

Separately, an official said Pence's schedule will probably be on the lighter side in the coming days, but that he's not doing a full self-quarantine.

than a 12 yr old.

They really think they can just defy the disease the way a 12 yr old would.

Bad news is their actions are killing us, they are murderers. We dont treat them as such though which is why so many are dying.

Stare that vile COVID-19 down and show it you're not afraid of it Pence! You've got this. Be courageous!

Health protocols during a pandemic are for Democratic Party people only. You're better than that.

P.S. Kiss Trump and give him my regards.

I think he needs to be at Trump's side everyday.

I also think he needs to go to Faux News and hang out with their top Journos to show
that he doesnt have to quarantine himself, he should stand really really close to Hannity/Watters
and Ingraham.
