Eleven members of the US Secret Service have tested positive for the coronavirus as of Thursday evening, according to Yahoo News.
Documents from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) seen by Yahoo News, revealed that the agency has 11 active coronavirus cases and an additional 60 employees who are reportedly self-quarantining. On top of this, another 23 members have already recovered from COVID-19, the diseases caused by the coronavirus.
It is not known whether the employees who tested positive for the coronavirus worked at the White House or if they had recent close contact with President Donald Trump or Vice President Mike Pence.
Both Trump and Pence get tested for the disease regularly but have not tested positive so far. However, Trump said this week that he would switch from having weekly to daily tests following the new cases, according to The Hill.
Justin Whelan, a spokesperson for the Secret Service told Yahoo News that the agency is following guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
"To protect the privacy of our employee's health information and for operational security, the Secret Service is not releasing how many of its employees have tested positive for COVID-19, nor how many of its employees were, or currently are, quarantined," Whelan added.
The news comes as President Donald Trump revealed on Friday that Mike Pence's press secretary, Katie Miller, tested positive for the coronavirus. Miller, who is the wife of Stephen Miller — Trump's senior adviser, and primary speechwriter — confirmed her diagnosis with NBC News, adding that she was asymptomatic.
Ivanka Trump's personal assistant has also tested positive for the coronavirus, CNN's Kaitlan Collins reported.

Well, even if the initial release was accidental, they have certainly been prepared with a plan following that event.
We had our hands full dealing with the mess the CCP released, but the time is coming, soon, when we will have to address this attack.
The Rats and their toadies in the media see only the domestic political angle “Get Trump!”, so it’s up to the 50% of the country that still remembers what America could be to drive the conversation.
Hope it’s enough.
No doubt you guys thinks it’s a major success.
The point is that this article asks people to see themselves losing 10 years of their lives because they had COVID and got over it. And, this is not at all what this article in its distorting way is saying. Instead, it speculates that these people’s lives were ended pre-maturely and offers a number.
Now it may be true that these people died early, but it is very probably not. Instead they made assumptions about the state of these people and then projections from those assumptions. Every year this same cohort is victimized by the flu prematurely ending their lives. Its not to be hard hearted, but to notice when you are being manipulated.
And, you asking this.. means you are just fine with this sort of manipulation.
Good grief
The FIRE is FADING and they are attempting to throw more tinder onto it.
Anyone who needs to take a PI$$ please do so directly on the FIRE.
That’s why the military won’t accept recruits who have “recovered” from China Virus.
The Secret Service and the U.S. military must be in on the hoax, just to trick you.
Sure.
See the Flu Bro Moron above, Doc.
And, you asking this.. means you are just fine with this sort of manipulation.

Or it could mean that I’m simply curious.
Imagine how much more constructive your reply would have been without the last condescending sentence. I could speculate about what that ‘means about you’ but I’ll choose not to.
Yea.. irritated. Someone has me imprisoned based on bad science.
But, frankly, I didn’t pick up on the curiosity and caught more than a wiff of condescension from you. SO perhaps you could phrase the question in a way that I believe is sincere.
So, thats where that goes. It turns out that in many states.. the tin pot dictators talk about saving people while slaughtering their own in Nursing homes while they destroy their own economy for political advantage. Your question was in my eyes.. just trolling. So, not that curious about why you would ask.
Frankly, I am in the cross hairs of this stuff. You follow the chart and I am most likely to end up in the hospital and yet.. I have to agree with the Doctors, this shelter in place thing is the worst possible tactic.
Today was a great day on WorldOMeters.. lowest deaths and new cases in spite of ever increasing testing, inflating the numbers so much that Dr. Birx says she no longer trusts them, ever game they can play to keep the panic going just a few days longer so they can get Vote by Mail passed.
Thank you for your calm response. Whatever your situation I very much hope that you stay healthy and avoid this virus as well as those close to you. I usually check the world meters also but didn’t today so thanks for the good news. Let’s hope they continue and this nightmare ends.
