On the heels of Pence self-isolating Kimmy is considering doing the same
Pence traveled to Iowa on Friday after Millers positive test, a trip that was delayed for more than hour so that six members of the vice presidents staff whod been in contact with Miller could disembark from Air Force Two.
Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds, who visited the White House on Wednesday and spent time near Miller, is considering self-isolating, according to two people familiar with the matter.
The states health director, Caitlin Pedati, accompanied Reynolds on the trip and is planning to self-isolate, one of the people said.
Reynolds and Pence were in each others company for extended periods during his Iowa trip, practicing social distancing. Neither official, though, wore a mask at meetings with state faith leaders and food industry executives.

When I see her visit a meat packing plant in Columbus Junction then will be my sign of all clear but for now good luck Kim and I thought you were smarter than that! It would be ironic that Trump Pence are pushing to open Iowa and it may have backfired. A bunch of morons....

Remember, she is the one who left the Meat Packing Plants open to protect the food supply chain. I still can't believe she didn't step in to help the essential workers. WTF.

(18,470 posts)5. Update on Kimmy
She going to follow a modified plan now.
Gov. Reynolds, during her Monday press conference, said she had no direct contact with the Vice Presidents aide, who had tested positive for COVID-19.
This follows the announcement on Friday that two White House staff members had tested positive for COVID-19.
Out of an abundance of caution, I will follow a modified quarantine plan, similar to what Dr. Fauci and other White House administration members have announced that theyre doing, Reynolds said.
Reynolds temperature will be taken daily, which included a test taken Monday morning that was negative.

Shes going to work from home. Which I gather will mainly be kissing rumps behind.
