Journalist Denied Entry to White House After Failing Temperature Check

One journalist was barred from Saturday’s coronavirus task force briefing after failing to pass a precautionary health checkpoint.

The White House announced in a tweet that the journalist, whose name was not released, failed a medical screening.

“According to the White House Medical Unit, the temperature was taken three times over a 15 minute period — all three registered above the @CDCgov 100.4 guidelines,” Katie Miller, the press secretary for Vice President Mike Pence, wrote in a Twitter post.
