The height of the first wave of Britain’s infection complicated Johnson’s illness, complicating the government’s response, not because the virus spread to government ranks in Westminster.
Trump and his wife Melania, who have also tested positive for the virus, may have been vague or just mild symptoms, as was the case with Britain’s health minister, Matt Hancock.
At 74 years of age and overweight, Trump – who has surpassed 207,000 deaths in the U.S. and spent months battling the severity of the epidemic – falls into the highest-risk category for serious complications of the disease. But the first woman, 50, is less likely to have a serious illness.
Mask, ignore the distance
In Brazil, Bolsonaro, a Trump-like populist leader, spent months denying the coronavirus threat like Trump, simply dismissing it as a “slight flu” and reassuring his compatriots that they had little to fear.
Before and after its positive test in early July, The 65-year-old showed similar dislike for precautions such as social distance by wearing masks.
Less than two weeks after the positive test, Bolsonaro walked to the grounds of his presidential palace and greeted the crowd of supporters, showing a live broadcast on his Facebook page.
When the Brazilian president wore the mask, he was closely linked by many aides who did not seem to consistently maintain a significant social distance from him. He repeatedly took off his mask while talking, even when assistants were nearby.
Concerns for Trump aides and Biden
It is unclear how many White House staffers or senior Republicans may have to be isolated after coming in contact with Trump or those close to him.
The president said late Thursday night that he planned to isolate his close aide Hope Hicks after he tested positive for the infection, following a prophylactic behavior.
While the White House often condenses its extensive testing etiquette for the president and those close to him – aides consider him “the nation’s most tested man” – the infection minimizes defects by relying on tests alone. To prevent infection.
In May, two White House employees, including a member of the Navy who serves as one of Trump’s personal wallets, tested positive for the virus, and in July, a cafeteria employee on the White House grounds tested positive. The president confirmed a fourth positive case on the grounds of the White House last month.
Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s camp will also be concerned that he has been exposed to the virus.
Putin’s caution
Putin’s caution did not stop people around him from becoming infected. Peskov himself was hospitalized in May with Kovid-19. Prime Minister Mishustan was also hospitalized and tested positive for the virus by Culture Minister Olga Lubimova and Housing Minister Vladimir Yakushev.
In April, Peskov said that everyone with the Russian president would be interviewed for coronavirus and that all such appointments would be replaced by social distance.
Putin sent a telegram to Trump on Friday wishing him and Melania a speedy recovery. “I am sure that your instincts, good spirits and optimism will help you fight the dangerous virus,” the Russian president was quoted as saying by the Kremlin Redout.
The virus showed early on that it had no breath of rank.
Australia Home Minister Peter Dutton also tested positive in Australia in March.
