But I have no doubt if asked for volunteers, there would be no shortage of secret service agents stepping forward. It's in their blood, and frankly the risk to them is probably small.

They are in an enclosed space with an infectious person. The risk is not small.

which works in their favor. I know little about the car, but would be surprised if air filtration is not part of the protection systems. So I still see it as low risk.

I guess if he was throwing himself in front of danger that would be one thing. But dying for a photo op does seem a little over the top. Apparently Trump doesn't mind if the man dies for that.
