It was announced by the White House that Kamala Harris went to Walter Reed Hospital for a “routine doctor’s appointment” today.
This comes just days after she met with the runaway Texas Democrats on Tuesday. Three of those Democrats have since tested positive for the Wuhan coronavirus.
Yesterday, Harris’ spokesperson Symone Sanders said that Harris hadn’t come in close contact with those Democrats and said that she wouldn’t be quarantining as a result.

“Based on the timeline of these positive tests, it was determined the Vice President and her staff present at the meeting were not at risk of exposure because they were not in close contact with those who tested positive and therefore do not need to be tested or quarantined,” Sanders said in a statement, adding that Harris and her staff have been fully vaccinated.
Fox contacted her office today to find out if she had developed any symptoms, but they did not respond to the inquiry.
Harris then tweeted about the new Delta variant of the virus as being “no joke.” So, one has to wonder about the timing of that, after this announcement about her going to the hospital.
This Delta variant is no joke. Get vaccinated.

Here’s a picture of a meeting with Harris and the Texas Democrats, among other people. She’s within spitting distance of Gene Wu; it’s not clear where the Democrats who tested positive are in the pic, but obviously some are closer than others.
Texas lawmakers are fighting for the rights of all Texans—and all Americans—to raise their voice through their vote.

The Texas Democrats flew to D.C. to play this performance drama, and so far it hasn’t worked out well for them.
Three got sick, and they’ve shown what hypocrites and liars they are to the world with this. They even flew without masks — with one of them now calling for a national mask mandate (which isn’t possible, but he apparently doesn’t know that).
All because the Democrats couldn’t accept losing a vote and wanted to lie about voting rights being denied to people. Now, if they got Kamala Harris sick, that would really make this an even worse — on top of how bad it’s already been for them. Hopefully, she’s okay, but talk about super spreader.
Not a great move there, Democrats.
