Brad Parscale, Other Trump Staff, In Quasi-Quarantine After Tulsa COVID Cases

Source: Daily Beast

Donald Trump’s reelection campaign manager, Brad Parscale, is one of a group of campaign staffers in quasi-quarantine after he attended a rally in Oklahoma last weekend where eight campaign aides tested positive for the novel coronavirus.

Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh announced on a conference call Thursday that, “as a precaution,” staff who made the trip to Tulsa were “working remotely” and would be tested for COVID before returning to work. Asked by The Daily Beast in a follow up email if the self-imposed work isolation applied to the campaign manager, Murtaugh said: “Everybody who was in Tulsa, yes.”

Parscale returned to his home in Florida after the rally in Tulsa, and Murtaugh told The Daily Beast that he flew commercial.

Sources close to the campaign described the quarantine measure as a precaution, and said the campaign plans to step up its coronavirus testing regime going forward in order to avoid similar incidents. One source said dozens of staffers had attended the Tulsa rally.

1. What The Fuck Is A Quasi-Quarantine?

Is that a Quarantine that you don't want to tell people is a Full Quarantine?

[Bernardo de La Paz]

5. Fake quarantine. Only until you pass an imperfect test. . . . nt

[kiri]

16. the test routinely reports false negatives, i.e, shows no virus when there really was

https://globalnews.ca/news/7045805/coronavirus-test-false-negative-study/

The primary type of testing for the novel coronavirus around the world produces “false-negative” results at least 20 per cent of the time, researchers from Johns Hopkins University found.
On day five of infection, which is when symptoms of COVID-19 typically begin to appear, and when people are often encouraged to seek out testing, the study found the false-negative rate is 38 per cent.

6. In this case I think it means keeping possibly infected people away from Trump but not caring who

else they might infect.

[marybourg]

7. No, that's a quarantine where you still go out to

eat, and get a manicure, and sit out on your neighbor’s back deck when you want to.

[C_U_L8R]

9. It's the Trump way.

[yonder]

18. A quarantine with a quasi-mode, no?

[sfstaxprep]

[soothsayer]

3. Haha, Parscale went back to FL

11. They need to tell America Parscale's Flight # & info.

As well as every one of Trump's fools that flew since that day.

Poor Joe Biden. How much worse condition can they leave America for him in Jan 2021 !!
Where does he start when everything is at critical mass.

32. Oh, yeah

and after Nov. 3 I expect red don to go full gotterdammerung, including pressuring the Fed to stop propping up the economy so as to leave a pile of smoking ruins for the incoming administration.

[Budi]

33. He'l have a good 70 days to complete his mission & the final episode is chillingly unpredictable

He's got a few lose ends to finish before he goes out in a flame of evil.

*After 9/11, the Saudis will get what they came for.

I hope Congressional Oversight can hold down the fort that long.
Trump can't complete that Arms Deal until Barr removes power of Congressional Oversight & approval.

And I'm sure he's working on it asap.

30. I heard on the news this afternoon that "dozens" of Secret Service

including those who were sent to Tulsa from "out of state" (from Texas) were also told to self-quarantine. In fact, here is article about that (and according to it, Pascale was apparently one of the few actually wearing a mask) -

Dozens of Secret Service agents will be quarantined after Trump's Tulsa rally

(CNN) Dozens of Secret Service agents will be quarantined as a precaution following President Donald Trump's rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, a law enforcement official told CNN on Wednesday.

The mass quarantine has led to the decision that Secret Service agents involved with presidential trips must be tested for coronavirus for the next couple of weeks, according to an email sent to agency personnel. The email sent out Wednesday was confirmed by the law enforcement official. Agents must now be tested 24 to48 hours before a presidential trip, the email said. The new testing mandate will be in place until July 4.

The law enforcement official said the number of quarantined agents is on the "low" side of dozens. A Secret Service official said the quarantining will not impact the agency's operations. The news was first reported by The Washington Post.

A US Secret Service source who worked advance for Saturday's rally and is now quarantining told CNN that agents from Dallas and Houston worked the event as well, and they had been warned before the trip from those field offices that they would need to quarantine when they got home.
