An attendee at the Conservative Political Action Committee conference later came down with the coronavirus — but did not have contact with President Trump or Vice President Mike Pence when they spoke at the annual event, the chairman said on Sunday.
“I can verify that he had no contact with either the president or the vice president,” Matt Schlapp said on “Fox and Friends Weekend.”
“And I can tell you, when the president was on site at CPAC, he lives by what he tells us, because I saw him scrub down his hand and clean his hands more than once while he was on the premises.”
But Schlapp said he came into brief “incidental contact” with the infected man at the conference in Maryland.
“I’m taking precautions. I’m talking to my doctor,” Schlapp said. “I talked to my mom last night, who was at the conference who is 80 years old. She feels like a million bucks. I feel healthy as a horse. My kids do as well, so there’s no indications from anybody I’ve talked to that there are any more problems.”
Schlapp said he spoke to the patient on the phone Saturday night and said the man “is on the mend.”
He also said he has reached out to anybody who “might have had contact with the patient, if I can verify it.”
“I think he was there most of the time, and the patient did not, I would say this, he didn’t spend a lot of time going all over the conference,” Schlapp noted.
The American Conservative Union, which hosted CPAC at the end of last month, announced on Saturday that an attendee tested positive for the virus and is being quarantined.
More than 400 people have tested positive for the coronavirus in the US and 19 have died.
