White House press secretary Jen Psaki said on Tuesday she has tested positive for COVID-19.
Psaki, in a statement, announced that she took a PCR test in the morning as part of the preparation for travel to Europe with U.S. President Joe Biden.
"That test came back positive, which means I will be adhering to CDC guidance and no longer be traveling on the President's trip to Europe," she said.
Biden tested negative Tuesday via a PCR test, according to the statement.
Psaki also revealed she had "two socially-distanced meetings" with Biden on Monday and that she's sharing the news of her positive test "out of an abundance of transparency."
