Harris’ interview was postponed because the host tested positive for Covid-19-News

The live TV interview with U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris was postponed on Friday after the two “Viewpoint” hosts learned that they had tested positive for Covid-19 before interviewing her.

Co-host Sunny Hostin and guest host Ana Navarro both learned before the interview that their breakthrough cases had tested positive. Navarro and Hostin were both at the table at the beginning of the show, but were then pulled out of the crew.

Harris, who originally planned to join the negotiating table, was interviewed remotely in another room of the ABC studio in New York. According to a White House official, she had no contact with any host who tested positive.

Co-hosts Joy Behar and Sara Haines stayed on the scene and conducted an interrupted interview.

“Sony and Anna are strong women, and I know they are good,” Harris said when he postponed their appearance. “But it does illustrate the fact that they are vaccinated, and the vaccine will have a major impact, otherwise we would worry about hospitalization or even worse.”

This moment highlights the ubiquitous danger of Covid-19 and is a clear reminder of the scope of the virus.

“Anna and Sonny, at the last minute, we realized that they tested positive for Covid, so they have been removed from the show,” said the shocked Behar, who announced the news when he hurried to the commercial after the show ended. At that time, the two hosts were pulling down their seats. Bihar said Harris was moved to a separate place because “they didn’t want to take risks.”

“It is very important to keep her healthy and safe,” Behar said. “The Secret Service is doing something that makes her feel safe.”

Officials said that the program team and assistants in the Vice President’s Office hoped to continue to be interviewed and quickly carried out contact tracing to ensure that Harris would not come into contact with anyone who might have had contact with Navarro and Hostin. The Secret Service then signed in a separate location in the studio.

After announcing the delay, Behar and Haines answered questions from the audience. The host did not wear a mask, but the studio audience was wearing a mask. Their colleagues said that Hostin and Navarro have been vaccinated.

The vice president’s duties include immigration. He acknowledged photos of border patrol officers on horseback, some of whom used their reins to fight immigrants running, “evoking pictures of some of the worst moments in our history. Used to deal with the indigenous people of our country, was used to deal with African Americans during the period of slavery.”

But she avoided answering whether the government would stop all deportations of immigrants and allow them to apply for asylum.

Harris said: “We must do more to support the Haitians who return to the island and return to Haiti.” “We must do more to support the recovery and recovery needs of Haiti in terms of natural disasters.”
