Barr is in self-quarantine, gets 3rd negative test result
Department of Justice spokeswoman Kerri Kupec told reporters that Attorney General Bill Barr is self-quarantining at home, but has so far tested negative for the virus.
The spokeswoman would not provide more details about Barr’s self-quarantine.
This is the third time he has tested negative for COVID-19 since last Tuesday's debate. Barr attended the Sept. 26 event at the White House where President Trump announced Judge Amy Coney Barrett as his Supreme Court Justice nominee.
Several Trump administration officials who contracted the virus last week, including Kellyanne Conway and former Gov. Chris Christie, attended the event and were not wearing masks during the outdoor ceremony.
Barr was photographed talking with Conway while not wearing a mask during the event.
