Just a month before the US election, President Donald Trump's campaign team announced that all the events he attended would be postponed or alternatively take place "virtually".
The team also updated that events planned with the participation of members of the Trump family will also be postponed, and that each event will be examined on its own merits.
At the same time, White House spokeswoman Kylie McNanny said an epidemiological inquiry into the contagion chain had begun, after Trump's aide, Hope Hicks, was the first to be diagnosed as positive.
"The investigation began immediately and we carried out all the necessary procedures," McKinney said, without specifying when the Hicks learned that it was positive for the virus.
She noted that Trump received his test result Thursday night "and within an hour the information was released to the nation."
Campaign events will be postponed.

Trump is experiencing mild corona symptoms, Biden has been found to be negative for the virus
A month before the election: Trump and his wife Melania became infected in Corona
Three packages that must be known for a fast, high-quality and reliable phone
About a week ago, Trump told U.S. citizens that they have nothing to fear from the virus because "it does not actually harm anyone," except for adults and those with medical problems, he will be forced to remain in isolation for the foreseeable future.
Now, the announcement by his campaign team of the postponement of the events could be a severe blow for him, as he tends to inflame his constituency base while he lags behind in the polls.
And the turmoil between them over his adherence to wearing masks, the existence of the next two clashes planned for November 3 is in doubt.
32 days until the election, and as he lags behind in polls after the former vice president, the practical freeze of the campaign could be a severe blow to him.
Already over the past day Trump has canceled a planned visit to Florida, one of the states that will decide the race, as well as a phone call with senior citizens in the state.
There has also been no activity on his Twitter account since the announcement, although he routinely uploads tweets frequently.
Also, Trump's diagnosis also has implications for his rival Joe Biden.
After mocking him in the first confrontation for his insistence on wearing masks, the existence of the next two confrontations planned for November 3 is questionable.
Earlier today Biden wished Trump a speedy recovery and updated that he was found to be negative for the virus.
The planned confrontation between Vice President Mike Pence and Biden Camela Harris' designated deputy will take place on October 7.
Like Baiden, other senior government officials who came in contact with the president conducted corona tests.
The test results of Vice President Pence - who in case Trump's medical condition deteriorates his powers, and has already taken his place in the phone call - and his wife Karen returned negative, as well as Finance Secretary Steve Manuchin, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Jared Kushner, Trump's adviser and son-in-law, and his wife, Ivanka.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said plans to transfer government powers remained in place. Pelosi is second in line to replace Trump, after Lantern, followed by Republican Senate President-elect Chuck Gresley
. It's tragic, it's very sad, "she said of Trump's diagnosis." Going into a crowd without a mask and everything else was a kind of blatant invitation to something like this
happen. " That the President of the United States, with all the protection he has, and the First Lady, are still being exposed to the virus .. this could be an instructive experience. "
