EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler will quarantine after he was exposed to someone who later tested positive for COVID-19.
“Earlier today I was informed I experienced secondary exposure from an individual who tested positive for COVID-19. After consulting my doctor and out of an abundance of caution, I will quarantine until I’ve gone through the proper testing protocols,” Wheeler said in a statement.
EPA spokesperson James Hewitt told The Hill in a follow-up email that Wheeler “was exposed to an individual who at the time of exposure had not yet tested positive, was wearing a mask, and was/still is asymptomatic.”
