White House aide tests virus positive

NEW YORK, Oct 07 (BBC): Covid-19 is spreading further among those around US President Donald Trump, with White House adviser Stephen Miller and a top military official infected.
Mr Miller, who has been self-isolating for the past five days, confirmed on Tuesday that he had tested positive.
Several military leaders are also quarantining after Coast Guard official Admiral Charles Ray tested positive.
Meanwhile, Democratic candidate Joe Biden has said Mr Trump should not debate him if he is still infected.
Speaking about their scheduled second encounter in Miami, Florida, on 15 October, he said he would be guided by medical experts.
"I think if he still has Covid, we shouldn't have a debate," he said.
