Jake Auchincloss, a member of Congress, accompanied President Biden on his trip the day before Biden tested coronavirus positive.
Rep. Jake Auchincloss, a Democrat, posted photos of himself with former President Joe Biden on Wednesday. On Thursday, his office confirmed to an investigative reporter that he had tested negative for COVID-19.
The White House did not disclose to the public until Thursday that the president had a positive test result for COVID-19, despite the fact that Auchincloss and Biden had detected the virus on Wednesday.
Rep. Auchincloss’s press secretary, Matt Corridoni, tweeted on Thursday morning that the congressman had tested negative for COVID prior to his trip with the president yesterday and that he had also tested negative this morning. Corridoni also tweeted that the congressman had tested negative this morning. At this moment, he does not exhibit any symptoms, but he will continue to be examined on a regular basis.
