“No matter how hard we try, these things happen. They probably have a breakthrough case and they’ll be okay,” Behar said

The show went on with their interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, remotely, on issues like the Haitian migrant crisis. 

According to The Independent, Hostin and Navarro received false positive tests. Later on, Navarro revealed that she received a negative PCR test.

Both she and Hostin are fully vaccinated. 

Hostin knew the impact of the deadly virus because her mother-in-law and father-in-law passed away from the coronavirus and her husband, Emmanuel Hostin, is an orthopedic surgeon.

“I was relieved to find out that I was COVID negative, and I always was assured by the fact that I am fully vaccinated. Even if I were COVID positive, I was convinced that I would likely be okay,” Hostin said on The View today.
