Dr. Anthony Fauci and other public health officials will testify this week before a key Senate committee via videoconference due to the threats posed by the novel coronavirus, Sen. Lamar Alexander announced Sunday.
Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases [NIAID], and other members of the White House coronavirus task force have gone into a "modified" quarantine after being exposed to a person who was infected with the contagion, officials said, adding that he has tested negative and will continue to go to the White House for relevant meetings and likely will wear a mask.
Besides attending meetings at the White House, Fauci will base himself out of his office at the National Institutes of Health [NIH] and work mostly by himself when few others are present, Fox News has learned.NIAID told Fox News on Saturday night: "Dr. Fauci has tested negative for COVID-19, and he will continue to be tested regularly. He is actively monitoring his temperature and other health indicators. He is considered to be at relatively low risk based on the degree of his exposure.
