White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany has tested positive for COVID-19.
On Friday, U.S President Donald Trump, and First Lady Melania, confirmed they tested positive for the coronavirus.
In a statement, McEnany said she received the results Monday morning, and is not experiencing any symptoms.
She said she will now begin the quarantine process.
“With my recent positive test, I will begin the quarantine process and will continue working on behalf of the American people remotely,” she said.
The top White House spokesperson is the latest in the president’s inner circle to test positive as Trump announced he’s set to leave Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, on Monday evening.
