President Donald Trump‘s youngest son, Barron, has tested positive for the coronavirus, according to a statement released Wednesday by first lady Melania Trump.
The first lady said that though Barron initially tested negative after both his parents tested positive for the disease, he later tested positive. However, he showed no symptoms, Melania Trump said.
“Luckily he is a strong teenager and exhibited no symptoms. In one way I was glad the three of us went through this at the same time so we could take care of one another and spend time together. He has since tested negative,” Melania Trump wrote.
This is a breaking story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
