The US is leading the world in terms of number of coronavirus cases at over 200,000 and third in the world in terms of deaths at over 5,000, if China’s are not counted, as it is not known what their accurate figures are. Mr Trump, 73, is in an age bracket that is more vulnerable to the virus, with eight percent of people in their seventies dying with it. While the President tested negative for COVID-19 on March 15, there have and will be many more opportunities over the coming weeks for him to contract the virus.
