Vice President Harris’ positive coronavirus tests came amid vaccine and mask mandates being lifted across the country, most notably in major cities like Chicago and New York City.

“I’ve had a scratchy throat for a couple days, but am feeling fine otherwise,” he said on his official Twitter account.
Similarly, on April 10, New York City Mayor, Eric Adams, tested positive for COVID-19.
