In a rather shocking development, a top counselor to the United States President Donald Trump has tested positive for the novel Coronavirus after developing virus symptoms.
Former White House Communications Director and Trump's aide Hope Hicks, who escorted Trump with other senior advisers for the Presidential debate in Ohio has contacted the virus.
Following this, Donald Trump and First Lady of the United States Melania Trump have undergone pandemic tests, and they are awaiting the test results. Trump announced the same through his Twitter handle.
'Hope Hicks, who has been working so hard without even taking a small break, has just tested positive for Covid 19. Terrible! The First Lady and I are waiting for our test results. In the meantime, we will begin our quarantine process!' Trump's tweet read.
Earlier, Donald Trump underwent pandemic tests twice in March and April. The reports of pandemic tests declared the President negative of the respiratory disease.
Ever since the novel Coronavirus has hit the United States, the Trump administration came under severe criticism on his response to combat the ongoing pandemic.
