U.S. coronavirus cases and hospitalizations continue to fall, though more than 1,200 people continue to die of COVID-19, on average, per day. On Tuesday, Vice President Kamala Harris skipped an Equal Pay Day event at the White House after her husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, tested positive for the coronavirus. The news came just days after former President Barack Obama also reported a positive test. Both men said they were experiencing mild symptoms. Meanwhile, Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin canceled a planned visit to the White House today after he received a positive coronavirus test result while attending a gala in Washington, D.C., that had just been addressed by President Biden.
