Schiff's wife Sheila Kelley has also tested positive for the virus. While she is at home and taking the necessary treatment, Schiff is still in the hospital. 

He wrote, “Covid update. Thank you all for so much love and support. You’re making it so much easier for Sheila and me. I am in the hospital on Remdesivir, O2 and steroids showing some improvement every day. Sheila is home and doing better but still fairly ill. Love you all.”

Despite his absence, The West Wing shooting is going on in Vancouver. The makers have planned the schedule to make up for his absence.
