Is President Trump at risk of contagion? His “dangerous” contacts in the last few days

Donald Trump one step away from the infection? The question arises after the positivity of a politician who attended the large assembly of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) was discovered. The event, which took place in Maryland in late February, was attended by Deputy Mike Pence, designated by the White House tenant as the Tsar of the fight against the virus, in addition to the President of the United States. But there is more because Pence himself participated in another great political wind, that of the AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) held a few days ago in Washington where two other people who tested positive for the buffer were present.

“I didn’t know!”, Says the Tsar antivirus, being surprised by the questions of the journalists who ask him for clarifications on the discovery of the two infected. The conference, which was attended by at least two thousand people, was also attended by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Bianca hastens to clarify that there is no evidence of alleged contacts between Trump, Pence and the infected, or that the Commander in chief and the tsar antivirus have been close to the successful participant. Trump for his part pulls straight and says that his election rallies will continue. “I am absolutely not worried,” replies the US president to those who asked him if he feared the Coronavirus would approach the White House even after the first case in Washington and the participant tested positive for the CPAC event.

In the late American evening, news arrived that the Grand Princess cruise ship, stranded off San Francisco with over 3,500 people on board (2422 passengers and 1111 crew members), including 21 infected by Coronavirus (19 members of the crew and two passengers), will dock in the port of Oakland (upper California) today. There are also 31 Italians on the boat among the crew members and one among the passengers, all healthy. Only 46 passengers, Pence admits, have been tested so far.

The Tsar himself launches new measures, with reinforced controls for all passengers when boarding and disembarking by means of monitoring, as well as more stringent checks will be carried out on board. Pence explained that the cruise industry is working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Security Department and the Coast Guard to implement the new guidelines in the next 72 hours. Finally, in the crosshairs of the US authorities there is a third ship that may have shared part of the crew with the Grand Princess or the Diamond Princess the two tourist vessels affected by the infection.
