Organizers of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) say someone who attended the conference last week in National Harbor, Maryland, has been diagnosed with the coronavirus.

The patient was exposed to the virus prior to the four-day conference and is being quarantined in New Jersey, organizers said in a tweet.

President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence attended CPAC but did not come in contact with the patient, organizers said.

"This attendee had no interaction with the President or the Vice President and never attended the events in the man hall," the group wrote. CPAC was held Feb. 26-29 at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center.

1. Many of his WH Sycophants Were there too.

May they all contract it.

2. Covid is a hoax.

Hopefully the immune-challenged rush wasn’t there.

3. The Government should force a quarantine on everyone in attendance.

Shut the conservatives down for two weeks and see if the country gets better.

4. That is a good idea.

5. First AIPAC now CPAC

Trump rallies may become transmission hot-spots since all gud murikans beleve its all a hox.

6. Oh darn.

Such a shame.

7. But how are they getting approved for testing?

The cdc enforced guidelines state you have to be hospitalized and have a fever (as well as other criteria) before they will approve a test.

This person is at home. they don't appear to qualify. Seems there are two sets of rules at play.

8. "no interaction with" is taking a Sharpie to it

but did they interact with someone who interacted with someone who interacted with someone ....

See how transmission works?

10. Al Jazerra had a different take on this

Senior White House Officials that were in contact w/tRUMP.



Will they quarantine them too?

12. Thoughts and prayers...

14. It's not that simple.

One person? And who did they shake hands with? Or bump into? Or cough or sneeze near?

And then, who did THEY shake hands with? Or bump into? Or cough or sneeze near?

And then, who did THOSE people in the next degree down shake hands with? Or bump into? Or cough or sneeze near?

And on it goes, compounding accordingly. And that’s just in and around AIPAC. What else? Who else? Who else did “AIPAC Patient Zero” encounter in the hours and days before AIPAC? And where is that individual now? In quarantine? And how many encounters has this person had with others before he or she was finally identified?

And of all the people “AIPAC Patient Zero” encountered, who did THEY encounter, and where? And where are THEY now?

There’s just a galaxy full of things we don’t know about, regarding this. And it takes TIME to sort out. And some people may not want to face the results.

Especially since we don’t know who among all those people actually DID come into contact with trump (or came into contact with someone who then came into contact with trump). And we all have seen how he doesn’t wash his hands.
