Trump tested positive for the disease on Thursday only hours after the White House announced that senior aide Hope Hicks had come down with the virus after traveling with the president for several days.

  • Although White House physician Sean Conley announced that Trump would continue to exercise the duties of his office, it remains unclear if Trump’s visit to Walter Reed Hospital changes that in any way.
  • It is still unclear how many total members of Trump’s White House have contracted the disease.
  • The severity of his symptoms at this point also remains unclear.

At 74 years of age, President Donald Trump is at a much higher risk of serious complications from the coronavirus which has now killed upwards of 200,000 Americans.

Other members of the President’s White House team have been and continue to be tested on a daily basis.
