Now, 17 of Donald Trump’s close contacts have tested positive.

On Monday, it was announced that Donald Trump’s press secretary Kayleigh McEnany had tested positive. On Twitter, she writes that she has no symptoms and that the positive test Monday morning comes after several negative tests since Thursday.

McEnany became the fifteenth in a row to test positive in the circle of the president of the United States.

Shortly after the news from the press secretary, it emerged that two of her other employees in the White House communications department tested positive, reports the CNN White House correspondent in twitter.

It all started when Trump’s close adviser, Hope Hicks, tested positive. Hours later, it was confirmed that the president and the first lady were also infected.

In addition to confirming the infection, McEnany writes that he did not know that Hicks was infected when he held a press conference on Thursday of last week. You are now beginning your quarantine while continuing to work.

Spread

Many in Trump’s close circle have already confirmed the infection and it appears that the infection continues to spread. Earlier Monday, it emerged that Claudia Conway, the daughter of former counselor Kellyanne Conway, is infected.

Conway is among those likely to be infected during the event in Rosehagen, where President Donald Trump introduced his Supreme Court candidate, Amy Coney Barrett.

Bill Stepien, who is the president’s campaign manager, is also infected. The same is his personal assistant Nicholas Luna. Chris Christie, Trump’s adviser who helped him prepare for the debate against Joe Biden, has been hospitalized.

In addition, several reporters who worked in the White House were infected.

Vice President Mike Pence and Trump’s sons are among those who tested negative. He also has Joe Biden and his wife.
