US President Donald Trump has said he and the US first lady are in quarantine after one of his closest aides tested positive for coronavirus. The 31-year-old adviser to the president is the closest aide to Mr Trump to test positive so far. During a phone call with Fox News host Sean Hannity on Thursday night, Mr Trump said he and Mrs Trump "spend a lot of time with Hope". Mr Trump mostly spurns mask-wearing and is often pictured not socially distanced with aides or others during official engagements. Vice-President Mike Pence's press secretary Katie Miller tested positive in May and recovered.
