Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz said Tuesday that his lab test for the new coronavirus came back negative, but he will stay under self-quarantine through Thursday afternoon out of "an abundance of caution."On Monday, Gaetz rode on Air Force One with President Donald Trump, where he was reportedly informed that he had previously been exposed to someone who had been diagnosed with the virus.
"I don't think it is a big deal. I would do it. I don't feel any reason — I feel extremely good. I feel very good, but I guess it's not a big deal to get tested and it's something I would do," Trump said. President Donald Trump greets Rep.
