Donald Trump is infected with the corona virus.

After his return to the White House, many employees are now staying at home, as he is still contagious.

But who is already part of the Corona cluster?

  • On

    Friday afternoon (October 2) it

    became known:

    US President Donald Trump *

    and his wife Melania were

    infected

    with the

    corona

    virus

    *

    .

  • On

    Monday evening (October 5)

    , Trump returned to the

    White House

    from the hospital

    , although he is said to be still infectious.

  • Now more and more

    infections are known

    from his

    circle of contacts

    .

  • This 

    news ticker

     is updated regularly.

Update from October 7th, 9:50 p.m.: US President Trump

stopped a corona aid package by tweet - the share prices promptly crashed.

According to the

New York Times,

some White House employees now suspect that

Trump's

strange behavior is related to his drug cocktail.

The leading Democrat Nancy Pelosi also apparently made a similar statement in an internal conversation, as

USA Today

reports.

To treat the

corona infection

, he apparently takes a steroid that

causes

mood swings

and can trigger deceptive energy surges and euphoria.

In the comments to a tweet from Wednesday evening, the suspicion arises that the drugs are affecting

Trump's

state of mind.

"Bringing up old conspiracy theories from 2.5 years ago ... the roid rage has now definitely reached its peak," writes a follower.

"Roid Rage" is the name for the increased aggressiveness after consuming anabolic steroids.

With the

tweet

,

Trump

shared an amateurishly designed video from a Twitter user named @AMErikaNGIRLLL, alleging that the FBI, NSA and CIA

spied on

Trump

and tried

to undermine

his

election victory

with falsified results.

Wow!!!

NOW DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS, THE BIGGEST OF ALL POLITICAL SCANDALS (IN HISTORY) !!!

BIDEN, OBAMA AND CROOKED HILLARY LED THIS TREASONOUS PLOT !!!

BIDEN SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED TO RUN - GOT CAUGHT !!!

Trump has Corona: White House refrains from tracing contacts

Washington - The

US president

announced

on Friday

that he was

infected

with the

corona

virus - five days later it is still considered contagious.

However, that

didn't

stop

Donald Trump

from

returning

to the

White House

on Monday

after a weekend at

Walter Reed Military Hospital

.

As the

New York Times

reports, the

government

largely refrained from tracking the

infection

situation around the

president

and

adequately informing

all those people with whom

Trump was

in contact

up to two weeks before the

positive test result

.

There

is also still no

cooperation with the

health department

here.

While Trump himself tweets as if nothing had happened and continues to campaign *, an

insider describes

the

atmosphere in the White House

since the president's return

as "chaotic"

according to a

CNN report

.

The virus is spreading in the

US government

and the White House: Another close

advisor to Trump, Stephen Miller

, tested positive for the

corona

virus

on Tuesday

.

Because of the numerous infected employees, the

west wing of the White House is

now almost empty, which is why

temporary

office space has been

set up

here for

Trump

- in the immediate vicinity of medical care.

"White House Cluster": Whoever has infected everything besides Trump

Many employees of the

US President

now apparently prefer

to work from home out

of

self-protection

.

Since he has been in charge again,

White House employees have been

talking

about a "total mess," as

CNN

reports.

According to the news channel, the

contact tracing in the White House

is said to have been more than chaotic

.

On Tuesday, the contact investigation was declared as "completed" by email to all employees.

However, various employees, journalists and politicians report - despite

direct contact with the US President

- that they have not yet been

notified and informed

by the

White House

.

So not only is it unclear who the

US president

infected

with the

corona

virus, but also where he could have

caught

the

infection

.

More and more voices are being raised that

Donald Trump

had a positive result much earlier

knew - and still

attended election campaigns and private appointments

across the country.

Not only the event for the presentation of Trump's candidate for the Supreme Court,

Amy Coney Barrett

, in the

rose garden of the White House

on

September 26th

is moving

into the public eye

as a possible

contagion cluster

, but also numerous other, sometimes smaller, festivities that the president is hosting during the incubation period *.
