Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel has tested positive for coronavirus following breaking news that the president and first lady received positive test results as well.
President Trump’s revelation came less than 24 hours after senior White House aide Hope Hicks tested positive for Covid-19. Hicks is reportedly symptomatic.
Donald and Melania Trump have begun their quarantine recovery process at the White House. McDaniels is resting in her Michigan home. It remains unclear how thoroughly the president’s reelection campaign will be affected.
Fox News further reports:
Meanwhile, on Friday, Vice President Mike Pence and second lady Karen Pence tested negative for COVID-19.
“As has been routine for months, Vice President Pence is tested for COVID-19 every day. This morning, Vice President Pence and the Second Lady tested negative for COVID-19,” Pence Press Secretary Devin O’Malley tweeted. “Vice President Pence remains in good health and wishes the Trumps well in their recovery.”

According to a source familiar with the situation, Hicks — who has been traveling with the president this week — began showing symptoms of coronavirus Wednesday night, either during or after Trump’s Duluth campaign event. She was quarantined aboard Air Force One on the way back and tested positive on Thursday morning, the source said.
