Vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris, who canceled her trips over the weekend after her communications manager was infected with corona, tested negative.
Campaign staff for the vice presidential candidate say the communications manager and a crew member on the plane she used during a trip to Arizona on October 8 tested positive for the coronavirus.
According to campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon, there was no “close contact” between Harris and the crew member during the trip and therefore the vice presidential candidate is not in quarantine.
As a precaution, Harris will still cancel planned travel activities through Monday, October 19, and will instead campaign online, O’Malley Dillon said Thursday.
