There are signs of a wave of infections at the top of the Republican Party: After a senator, among other things, tested positive for the corona virus, Trump’s campaign leader Bill Stepien and his former adviser, Kellyanne Conway, now they are infected.
Former senior adviser to the president of the United States, Donald Trump, Kellyanne Conway, contracted the corona virus. She had tested positive for the corona virus, Conway wrote on Twitter. You have mild symptoms, a mild cough, and you feel fine. The quarantine has begun in consultation with the doctors.
The current leader of the Trump campaign, Bill Stepien, is also infected with the virus. The election campaign team confirmed a report in Politico magazine. Stepien received his diagnosis Friday night and had mild flu-like symptoms. You keep control of the campaign from your home office.
Earlier in the day it emerged that Republican party leader Ronna McDaniel had also contracted the virus. The positive test from Trump’s close adviser Hope Hicks on Thursday resulted in many other tests in the president’s environment.
Close contact without mask
Conway, who surprisingly announced his retirement from the White House in late August, attended an event at the White House last Saturday. At the event in the rose garden, Trump presented conservative attorney Amy Coney Barrett as a candidate for the vacant seat on the United States Supreme Court. Conway was seen in photos without masks and in close contact with other guests, including alongside Attorney General William Barr.
On Friday, the contagion of two Republicans in the US Senate had already drawn attention to the event, including Senator Mike Lee from the state of Utah. Although the event was outdoors on the White House lawn, it was easy to see that many of the participants were not wearing masks and kept their distance. The rector of the Catholic University of Notre Dame, who was present, also announced this Friday that his crown test was positive.
Shortly after midnight on Friday, it emerged that US President Trump and First Lady Melania had contracted the corona virus. Conway sat right behind Melania Trump at the event. In the 2016 presidential election, Conway helped Trump win as campaign manager. After he took office, she became an advisor to the President of the United States and one of his most determined advocates.
