Скачать или смотреть WH Adviser Stephen Miller Tests Positive For The Coronavirus

White House Adviser Stephen Miller has tested positive for the coronavirus, the White House press office tells NPR, days after the president and several of his White House colleagues have also tested positive for the virus.  In a statement shared by the White House press office, Miller, who made his name as the architect of some of Trump's most controversial and severe immigration policies, said:  "Over the last 5 days I have been working remotely and self-isolating, testing negative every day through yesterday. Today, I tested positive for COVID-19 and am in quarantine."  Nearly two dozen close contacts to the White House have tested positive for the virus in the last week. An event held at the White House Rose Garden last week to announce President Trump's nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court appears to have been crucial to the spread of the virus within some of Washington's most high-profile Republican players.  After announcing his own diagnosis of the virus, Trump spent about three days at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for treatment. Trump left the medical facility on Monday evening to return to the White House, despite ongoing treatment and concern over his health.  Miller's announcement of his own positive test came after other key public-facing White House associates announced their own positive diagnoses, including Trump and the first lady, former White House adviser Kellyanne Conway, and Kayleigh McEnany, the White House press secretary.  Miller's diagnosis comes months after his wife and spokeswoman to Vice President Mike Pence, Katie, also tested positive for the virus.
