Donald and Melania Trump's son Barron, 14, contracted Covid-19 but has since tested negative, first lady says
Donald Trump's teenage son Barron tested positive for coronavirus but had no symptoms, according to first lady Melania Trump.
In a personal post on the White House website, entitled 'My personal experience with COVID-19', she said: "Recovering from an illness gives you a lot of time to reflect."
In the post, she told how she and her US president husband were diagnosed.
"Naturally my mind went immediately to our son. To our great relief he tested negative, but again, as so many parents have thought over the past several months, I couldn't help but think 'what about tomorrow or the next day?'.
"My fear came true when he was tested again and it came up positive. Luckily he is a strong teenager and exhibited no symptoms.
"In one way I was glad the three of us went through this at the same time so we could take care of one another and spend time together.
"He has since tested negative."
