A White House memo directs everyone to wear masks when entering the West Wing, following virus scares close to the president.
FILE - In this April 17, 2020, file photo, President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence listen as Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, speaks about the coronavirus in the James Brady Press Briefing Room of the White House in Washington.
Yet, that message was undercut by the exposure of senior government officials to positive cases at the White House itself and new protective measures implemented to keep Trump safe. The stepped-up protective measures comes as Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the CDC, and the commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, Dr. Stephen Hahn, were all quarantining after exposure to the White House staffer.
Trump was scheduled to travel to the state on Thursday, according to advisories from the Federal Aviation Administration.
