(UnitedVoice.com) – The coronavirus (COVID-19) that originated in China doesn’t discriminate when it comes to whom it infects — from the streets of Cleveland to possibly even the White House.
Last weekend, President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence met with the President Jair Bolsonaro of Brazil at Mar-a-Lago. Also present at the gathering was Fabio Wajngarten, the press secretary for Bolsonaro — who tested positive for COVID-19 Thursday. This unfortunate turn of events means that both the President and Vice President of the United States may have been exposed to the virus.
“Both the President and Vice President had almost no interactions with the individual who tested positive and do not require being tested at this time.”

Wajngarten posted a picture of himself standing with the President on Twitter. Despite having been in contact with a carrier of the coronavirus, Trump has no plans to be tested. In fact, he has stated that he’s “not concerned” about the situation.
The US has over 1760 confirmed cases as of March 13, let’s hope the residents of the White House don’t add to that total.
