Olivia Troy says if you work in the White House, you've got a choice to make. You can wear

a mask and try to avoid the coronavirus or ditch the mask and fit in.

In the West Wing, mask wearing was rare. How did you deal with that? Like, did you wear

a mask sometimes and not others?

Correct. Unfortunately, I mean, at times I would have a mask if I didn't know who I was

meeting with. But if I was in the West Wing and with the Vice President outside the office

or meeting with the staff, it was uncomfortable.

Olivia worked with the Vice President until August. She was part of the coronavirus task force,

which is why masks were important to her. You've probably heard her name.

Since leaving her job, she has been talking to journalists and recording TV ads.

Olivia's got one goal, getting Trump voted out of office. When she talks about the weeks before

she left government service, you can hear her frustration that she was working at what arguably

should have been the safest workplace in America. And yet, she felt remarkably unsafe.

We finally got temperature checks at the gate. And then there was a reversal on the temperature

checks when advanced team members and people on the road, when they started going on the road again,

were testing positive. Suddenly, those temperature checks went away.

And I thought to myself, we are putting everyone repeatedly at risk.

To hear Olivia tell it, working at the White House didn't mean you were protected from the virus.

It meant you were constantly dodging it. And the one day, it found you.

Back in May, Olivia says she was meeting with Katie Miller, the Vice President's press secretary,

when Katie coughed. I was around her. I mean, we're talking one foot away, two feet away.

And what do you do in that circumstance? Like someone coughs, you're worried about COVID.
