The Democratic convention's surprise guest: Covid
Positive Covid results are rolling in — including among Kamala Harris' staff — after last week's Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
CHICAGO — They came hoping for Beyoncé. They left with Covid.
Fresh off of a jam-packed week of Democratic National Convention events, reports of attendees’ testing positive for Covid are rolling in.
They include members of Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign staff, who are now contending with sickness from Covid, according to two sources close to the campaign with knowledge of the cases. There is at least some concern the developments could affect staffing at events this week, they added.
One of the sources said that so far, the aides' symptoms they’ve heard about have been mild, and a third person close to the campaign said there was no concern about staffing the events.
Since the convention wrapped up Thursday, various attendees and reporters have posted photos of positive Covid results.
