The White House Correspondents' Association Dinner is asking attendees to take a same-day COVID-19 test and email the negative results after last year’s event was viewed as a superspreader.
When the dinner resumed after a two-year pandemic-related hiatus in 2022, a more stringent testing requirement was put into place, but multiple guests subsequently contracted the virus nevertheless.“Guests should conduct a home rapid test on the day of the dinner and send the results before heading over to the Hilton,” this year’s guidance reads.
Resuming the dinner as a mass public event last year was not without controversy. Anthony Fauci was the federal government’s top infectious disease expert and a public face of its pandemic response at the time, and he was reportedly “miffed” by the dinner and the attendance of high-profile Biden administration officials.
“Looking back on it, I’m wondering what the hell was going through Ashish’s mind at that point,” a person who was on the call where Fauci complained about the message sent by these events told Politico.
