Macri had to initiate preventive isolation last Wednesday, after participating in a meeting with the leader of Together for Change
Alex Campbell,
who later confirmed that Covid-19 was infected again.
Strictly speaking, it was a meeting that Macri led with several JxC leaders from Buenos Aires.
Others present were Lucas Delfino, Undersecretary of Federal Urban Cooperation of the Buenos Aires Government;
Martiniano Molina, former mayor of Quilmes, and Alejandro Finocchiaro, the former Minister of Education of the Cambiemos government.
According to Clarín reconstructed, Campbell decided to undergo a rapid test that same day because, after the meeting, they informed him that his wife had tested positive.
"After having close positive contact with COVID-19 by my wife, I decided not to wait and swab and the result is positive for me too (for the second time)," said the Buenos Aires deputy himself through a message that he spread on Twitter.
