OP
Thank you. Dr. Fauci is probably relieved to have some time away from the zoo.

Fauci to begin 'modified quarantine'
(CNN)Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and member of the White House's coronavirus task force, tells CNN he will begin a "modified quarantine" after making a "low risk" contact with the White House staffer who tested positive for the novel coronavirus.
The "low risk" assessment means he was not in close proximity to the person who tested positive during the time when that person was known to be positive for the virus.
He is not doing a full quarantine like Stephen Hahn, the commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration. Robert Redfield, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, will self-quarantine for two weeks after he was exposed to a person at the White House who tested positive for Covid-19, a CDC spokesperson confirmed to CNN.
To air on the side of caution, Fauci said he is doing what he calls a "modified quarantine," meaning he will stay at home and telework, wearing a mask continually, for 14 days. He said he might also go to his office at the National Institutes of Health where he is the only one there. He also will be tested every day, he said, noting he was tested yesterday and was negative.

I doubt he ever realized he'd get caught up in this fiasco like he has. I have to admire him for speaking his mind, to our benefit, after the resident of the Oval has made erroneous statements.

Maybe they gave a CDC speech. And stayed to shake hands & mingle..🤔
No one on that list I'd weep over.
