“The Speaker is fully vaccinated and boosted, and is thankful for the robust protection the vaccine has provided,” Hammill said. “The Speaker will quarantine consistent with CDC guidance, and encourages everyone to get vaccinated, boosted and test regularly.”
Pelosi was reportedly not in attendance at the Gridiron Club dinner last Saturday, which has become the source of an outbreak among some elected officials.
She was, however, in attendance at a White House event Wednesday, where she appeared in close proximity to Biden and other Democratic lawmakers, including Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, while unmasked.
Pelosi was previously scheduled to lead a congressional delegation on a trip to Asia on Thursday, which Hammill added has now been postponed.
The statement was made while reporters were gathered in the Capitol complex waiting for Pelosi’s weekly press conference.
