US President Donald Trump apparently withheld an initial positive corona test.
The "Wall Street Journal" reports.
Accordingly, a quick test was positive on Thursday.
Trump did not make the test result public.
Rather, he subsequently appeared on the US broadcaster Fox News:
There he confirmed reports that one of his closest employees had tested positive for the corona virus.
He also mentioned the second test he had taken that night and was waiting for the results.
However, the public did not find out that a first test had already been positive.
In fact, Trump only made his corona disease public after the second test.
The public found out about the news on Twitter early Friday morning, American time.
