Trump with covid: earlier headlines

 From almost 24 hours ago



  • President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump tested positive for Covid-19 early on Friday, after senior aide Hope Hicks who travelled with the couple fell ill

• The White House says the President, who is 74, should be able to carry out 

his duties without disruption. He reportedly has mild, cold-like symptoms

• Financial markets tumbled on the news with investors warning of higher volatility; Asian stocks declined while the dollar and the yen climbed. US stock futures were 

negative

• Trump’s diagnosis has immediate political consequences just 31 days before 

a presidential contest already steeped in tension

• Analysts are asking whether other senior administration officials have been 

affected and if the November 3 election could be pushed back
