News of Trump’s infection came just a short time after one of the president’s closest advisors, Hope Hicks, was revealed to have tested positive for COVID-19, which has killed more than 205,000 Americans and 1 million people worldwide.
A White House source told Fox News shortly after the president’s tweet that he and the first lady are “fine” and are in the quarantine process at the White House.
