Does anyone have an up-to-date list of all Republican politicians and officials who have recently tested positive or are highly likely to have been exposed, and/or likely to have exposed others to risk of infection?
Beginning to have some difficulties keeping track of old white assholes with covid running around hugging people and singing karaoke without masks.
Positive so far:
Donald Trump
Melania Trump
Adviser Hope Hicks
GOP Chair Ronna McDaniel
Senator Mike Lee (R-UT)
Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC)
Notre Dame President Jenkins
1 White House staffer
3 journalists who work at WH
11 traced to the Presidential debate in Cleveland
Kellyanne Conway
campaign manager Bill Stepian
Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI)
Chris Christie
It seems clear he and others were infectious at the debate. Lets hope Biden and his team have avoided it, though its worth remembering that masks are primarily there to help others not yourself and Trump and his team weren't wearing them. Biden and his team tried to distance from them though - not getting close and elbow bumping might have prevented him from getting the plague.
Although Biden's tested negative he's not out of the woods yet, it can take longer to test positive.
Really feel sorry for those people at ABC who were exposed due to their network's dumbfuck decision to have him on as a panelist, with no major precautions, after he'd hung out with the plague-bearers during Trump's debate-prep.

So that's how it happened...
