Dozens of Secret Service agents have been instructed to self-quarantine after two officers who attended President Donald Trump’s rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Saturday tested positive for the coronavirus, The Washington Post and CNN reported. The Secret Service told agents who worked at the Tulsa campaign event to stay home for 14 days following the weekend trip, two sources familiar with the decision told The Washington Post, which first reported the news. “The U.S. Secret Service remains prepared and staffed to fulfill all of the various duties as required,” an agency spokesperson told the Post in a statement. The Secret Service did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment. On the day of the event, the Trump campaign discovered that six staffers working on the rally had tested positive for the coronavirus; two were reportedly Secret Service members.
