WASHINGTON –
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie send their best wishes to Donald Trump and his wife Melania after the couple tested positive for COVID-19
Trudeau says on Twitter they hope for a full recovery for the president and the first lady
Trump dropped the bomb early Friday just hours after Hope Hicks, one of his closest advisers, herself tested positive
He says he and Melania will be quarantined at their home, an ironic development for a president and an administration that critics have assailed for a cavalier and haphazard approach to the pandemic
The revelations galvanize Washington with questions on everything from the true health of the first family – the president is 74, in a high-risk age group – to the depth of the virus infection in the White House
Vice President Mike Pence and his wife Karen, meanwhile, say they have both tested negative for the virus
« Sophie and I send our best wishes to POTUS Trump and FLOTUS, » Trudeau tweeted « We hope you will recover soon and have fully recovered from this virus »
