According to TMZ, Nick Luna reportedly tested positive for the virus days after President Trump announced his results on Twitter. Luna is very involved in Trump’s day-to-day activities inside and outside of the White House. His wife, Cassidy Dumbauld, works as the assistant to Jared Kushner but it is unclear if she tested positive for the virus as well.
The media outlet also noted Luna is now a part of the 27 coronavirus cases from the White House. This list includes President Trump, First Lady Melania, Hope Hicks, Kellyanne Conway, Chris Christie, Sen Mike Lee, Sen Thom Tillis, Sen Ron Johnson, Ronna McDaniel, John Jenkins, and Bill Stepien.

Dr. Sean Conley, Trump’s personal doctor, reported that the president is doing “very well” and responding to the Remdesivir treatment.
“This evening he completed his second dose of Remdesivir without complication. He remains fever-free and off supplemental oxygen with a saturation level between 96 and 98% all day. He spent most of the afternoon conducting business, and has been up and moving about most the medical suite without difficulty. While not yet out of the woods, the team remains cautiously optimistic. The plan for tomorrow is to continue observation in between doses of Remdesivir, closely monitoring his clinical status while fully supporting his conduct of Presidential duties.”
