US Secretary of the Interior Also Infected With Corona Virus

David Bernhardt, the US Secretary of the Interior, has also tested positive for the coronavirus.

 

That happened Wednesday, before a scheduled meeting with President Donald Trump in the White House. Bernhardt is the umpteenth person in Trump’s entourage who has become infected with the coronavirus.

After his positive test result, Bernhardt no longer went to the appointment with Trump, who was tested positive in early October and had to spend several days in a military hospital.

The test at Bernhardt had been administered on a routine basis.

“He is currently asymptomatic and will continue to work on behalf of the American people while in quarantine,” an Interior Department spokesman said in an email.

The positive test came after a series of meetings with top ministry officials last week, where a portrait of former Minister Ryan Zinke was also unveiled.
