Ben Carson Tests Positive For Coronavirus

According to NBC News, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson has tested positive for the coronavirus.

It was said that Carson was tested at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Maryland after he began to experience symptoms of COVID-19, though he is no longer at the hospital. Coalter Baker, Carson’s chief of staff, said in a statement to ABC News: “Secretary Carson has tested positive for the coronavirus. He is in good spirits and feels fortunate to have access to effective therapeutics which aid and markedly speed his recovery.”

Carson, 69 was at the White House last week for an election night party that was also attended by White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. The 61-year-old also tested positive for COVID-19 last week.

Carson was also spotted maskless at a Trump campaign rally in Waterford Township, Michigan on October 30. He’s now the the latest high-ranking Trump administration official to contract the virus.
