White House officials believe POTUS was infected at the event for Judge Barrett on Saturday Sept 26.
They will not say when POTUS last tested negative, raising questions as to whether he was tested at all between infection and the debate Tuesday Sept 29.

2/ NYT reporter @shearm believes he got infected Sept 26 either at the WH (required to go to get a COVID test bc he was traveling with the POTUS) or on Air Force One with POTUS the night of Sat. Sept 26.

3/ The next day, Sunday Sept 27, POTUS briefed reporters in the Briefing Room and hosted Gold Star families in an event *with no masks or social distancing required.*
Did he test negative before meeting these families?
WH won’t say.

4/ A Coast Guard admiral who attended that Gold Star Family event tested positive the next day.

5/ And then of course the president flew to Ohio to debate Joe Biden on Tuesday September 29.
Gov DeWine says the WH did not contact him to alert him POTUS had tested positive or to coordinate contact tracing of Ohioans put at risk of infection. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/videos/politics/2020/10/04/mike-dewine-trump-ohio-visit-coronavirus-contact-sotu-intv-vpx.cnn

6/ And again: when did the president last test negative?
That’s information the Biden campaign, the CPD, Ohioans and others have a right to know.
The president flew to Minnesota Sept 30 — did he test negative that day? WH won’t say.

7/ The White House refuses to answer as to when the president last tested negative. This isn’t just an issue of the public’s right to know, it’s also a public health issue given that the president is contagious. What possible justification is there for not sharing this info?
8/ When asked when POTUS last tested negative, Commander Conley said “I don’t want to move backwards.”
That is not an acceptable answer. The White House needs to say, on the record, when POTUS last tested negative.
