Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), the running mate for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, has paused travel through Sunday after two people involved with the campaign tested positive for COVID-19.

In a statement released Thursday, Biden’s campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon said plans canceled through the end of the weekend are “out of an abundance of caution.”

Harris’ communications director Liz Allen tested positive for the coronavirus — the news of the positive test came to the campaign late Wednesday. The other person is a “non-staff flight crew member.”

According to Biden’s campaign manager, Harris had not been in close contact with her communications director.

“Senator Harris was not in close contact, as defined by the CDC, with either of these individuals during the two days prior to their positive tests; as such, there is no requirement for quarantine. Regardless, out of an abundance of caution and in line with our campaign’s commitment to the highest levels of precaution, we are canceling Senator Harris’s travel through Sunday, October 18th. […] Neither of these people have had contact with Vice President Biden, Senator Harris or any other staffers since testing positive or in the 48 hours prior to their positive test results.”

On Wednesday, Harris tested negative for COVID-19.

The news of Harris’ staff member’s positive test comes after President Donald Trump recovered from COVID-19. He tested positive later in the week following the first presidential debate. Biden had tested negative multiple times since the debate.
