Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, is seen on a monitor before the start of a Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee hearing on Thursday in the Dirksen Building.

Fauci tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday and was in isolation for the hearing, which, coincidentally, was an update on the continuing federal response to the disease.
