President Trump, first lady test positive for COVID-19

October 2, 2020 By Tasha Redel

President Trump and First Lady Melania tested positive for COVID-19 hours after White House adviser Hope Hicks was diagnosed. Hicks traveled with President Trump to his campaign rally Wednesday night at the Duluth International Airport and was on Marine One presidential helicopter in Minnesota. President Trump tweeted, “Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!” All campaign events have been postponed including two stops Saturday in Wisconsin. President Trump says he and First Lady Melania both got tested because they spend a lot of time with Hicks. The president’s doctor says Trump and the first lady “are both well at this time. “
