Pence told reporters at the White House that the staffer who tested positive for the virus had “mild cold-like symptoms” for about a day-and-a-half and had not been to the White House since Monday.

He said that although his doctor said a test was not necessary, he decided to get one anyway.

“Given the unique position that I have as vice president and the leader of the White House coronavirus task force, both I and my wife will be tested for the coronavirus this afternoon,” Pence said.
