quote:One of Trump's personal valets has tested positive for coronavirus
A member of the US Navy who serves as one of President Donald Trump's personal valets has tested positive for coronavirus, CNN learned Thursday, raising concerns about the President's possible exposure to the virus.
The valets are members of an elite military unit dedicated to the White House and often work very close to the President and first family. Trump was upset when he was informed Wednesday that the valet had tested positive, a source told CNN, and the President was subsequently tested again by the White House physician.
In a statement, the White House confirmed CNN's reporting that one of the President's staffers had tested positive.
"We were recently notified by the White House Medical Unit that a member of the United States Military, who works on the White House campus, has tested positive for Coronavirus," deputy White House press secretary Hogan Gidley said in a statement. "The President and the Vice President have since tested negative for the virus and they remain in great health."

quote:An aide to Vice President Mike Pence tested positive for coronavirus infection, delaying his departure for a trip to Iowa on Friday, according to people familiar with the matter -- the second person working at the executive residence to contract the virus this week.
Pence was delayed for more than an hour Friday morning as six staffers who had contact with the infected aide were removed from his plane, according to a senior administration official. They were asked to have themselves tested for infection and to go home, the official said. The infected aide was not aboard.
The Pence aide has not recently had direct contact with President Donald Trump, but the official declined to discuss the aide’s contact with the vice president.
Pence is scheduled to discuss the impact of the coronavirus outbreak on churches and on the food supply while in Iowa. The people familiar with the matter asked not to be identified because the positive test hasn’t been announced.
