After being questioned by the US president himself, the celerity of Covid-19 violently burst into the White House this week.
But the deadly virus was not content to infect Donald Trump, who said Monday night to feel "really good".
He also attacked several members of his bodyguard, disrupting habits in the heart of Washington.
First, his wife.
While the leader was hospitalized at Walter Reed Medical Center, Melania Trump, 50, is recovering in the White House.
"I feel good and I will continue to rest at home," she tweeted on Monday as her husband reconnected with the social network to announce his discharge from the hospital.
President Ivanka Trump's daughter and her husband Jared Kushner, who hold White House advisers, are spared.
Several advisers and assistants affected
In his professional entourage also, it is the hecatomb.
The positive diagnosis of Hope Hicks, 31, a close advisor to Donald Trump, leaked to the media on Thursday.
She travels regularly with the President and accompanied him twice aboard Air Force One last week.
