The White House said that Harris, who is fully vaccinated and doubly boosted, was experiencing no symptoms.

It also comes as the White House has sought to project a new phase in the pandemic fight, one in which the country would learn to largely live with and manage the virus. While the White House says Harris was not a close contact, her positive case still reinforces concerns about the virus closing in on the president. Still, the White House has consistently battled outside concerns and commentary about Biden’s age and health. Harris’ husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, also had the virus in mid-March. She will follow CDC guidelines and the advice of her physicians. She has not been a close contact to the President or First Lady due to their respective recent travel schedules.

Vice President Kamala Harris Tests Positive for Covid-19 (The New York Times)

While Kamala Harris had not seen President Biden for eight days, her positive test renewed concerns about his vulnerability to the virus.

The last time the two were together was on April 18, according to a White House official. Officials have repeatedly emphasized that the White House maintains stricter measures than the C.D.C. advises. Mr. Emhoff told McClatchy News last week that he had isolated from his wife for 10 days while infected, staying in an upstairs room and having food brought up to him. Officials in the White House said they were contact tracing to determine who may have been near Ms. Harris in recent days. It takes about a week for a shot to boost the immune system. Ms. Harris was not at the dinner, but her communications director, Jamal Simmons, attended and tested positive afterward. He has been traveling and appearing in public more lately, including three trips out of town last week, which increases his potential exposure, and aides on Tuesday sounded resigned to the prospect that he may be infected eventually. Ms. Harris received her test results shortly after returning to the White House following several days in California, then left the West Wing without seeing Mr. Biden to isolate at the vice president’s residence. At least 80 guests at the Gridiron Dinner last month tested positive afterward, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and two members of Mr. Biden’s cabinet, Attorney General Merrick B. Garland and Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo. “It is possible he could test positive for Covid, just like any American,” said Jen Psaki, the White House press secretary. When it came back positive, she took a P.C.R. test, which also came back positive. In an evenly split Senate, Democrats need every member plus the vice president’s tiebreaking vote to overcome uniform Republican opposition.

La Casa Blanca aseguró que Harris no estuvo recientemente en contacto con el presidente Joe Biden.

Biden, de 79 años, no ha dado positivo al COVID-19 hasta ahora, y después de evitar las grandes aglomeraciones durante casi toda la pandemia, no ha ocultado su deseo de volver a mezclarse con multitudes, uno de los aspectos que más disfruta de su vida política. En el último mes, han crecido los casos de COVID-19 en el entorno de Biden: varios miembros de su gabinete se contagiaron tras asistir a la cena del club periodístico Gridiron a principios de abril, y las dos principales portavoces de la Casa Blanca también han dado positivo recientemente. Sin embargo, la Casa Blanca no ha cambiado sus protocolos ante ese aumento de contagios en Washington DC y ha mantenido varios actos en interiores y sin apenas mascarillas, al considerar que las cosas no son tan graves como a principios de enero, cuando se registró el pico de contagios por la variante Ómicron. "[Harris] seguirá las recomendaciones de los CDC y los consejos de sus médicos. La vicepresidenta volverá a la Casa Blanca una vez de negativo a la prueba del COVID-19", aseguró su vocera. Tras el anunció Harris se pronunció sobre tu contagio en las redes sociales: "Hoy di positivo por COVID-19. No tengo síntomas y continuaré aislándome y siguiendo las pautas de los CDC", dijo la vicepresidenta de EEUU. Allen aseguró que el presidente Joe Biden y la primera dama Jill Biden no han estado "en contacto cercano" con Harris debido a sus agendas de viaje.
