Ted Cruz self-quarantining after meeting coronavirus-stricken CPAC attendee
[NYPOST] Sen. Ted Cruz is quarantining himself after coming into contact 10 days ago with an attendee of the Conservative Political Action Committee conference who was later diagnosed with the coronavirus.

Cruz said in a Sunday statement he learned of the interaction with the since-infected man last night, but emphasized that he’s not experiencing symptoms and feels "fine and healthy."

The Republican senator said his contact with the CPAC attendee was limited to "brief conversation and a handshake" at the Maryland event last month.

Health officials advised Cruz "that the odds of transmission from the other individual to me were extremely low" and his "brief interaction with the individual does not meet the CDC criteria for self-quarantine."

#1 So, if you pass through the quarantine period (how many days is that? So many different answers) without presenting symptoms, you can come out and try to get sent back to quarantine after your next suspect encounter?
