US Vice President Mike Pence, who heads the national coronavirus task force, tested negative for coronavirus after two close aids contracted the virus in the latest outbreak at the White House only weeks before the presidential election.
Marc Short, the vice president’s main adviser who is constantly at his side and frequently acts as spokesman for Mr. Pence, tested positive on Saturday. One of Mr. Pence’s closest political advisers, Marty Obst, also tested positive.
