Link to tweet
A CPAC attendee has tested POSITIVE for coronavirus. Trump spoke at CPAC on 2/29, the SAME DAY he called it the Dems' "new hoax."
Trump was *AT* CPAC where the disease he was currently spreading misinfo about was BEING spread, possibly to HIMSELF.
Irony's really something.

I think its 9 days after exposure that it can be detected.

He's over 70 and has a preexisting disease. And Malaria is at risk too what with her kidney problems.

@PhilipRucker
CPAC, which today confirmed an attendee was infected with coronavirus, is where then-acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney accused the press of hyping coronavirus, which he described as a media ploy to try to bring down Trump.
