A map of coronavirus exposures in Trump’s orbit in two weeks

Australia’s home affairs minister, Peter Dutton, said on March 13 that he tested positive for the coronavirus, less than a week after meeting at the White House with Attorney General Bill Barr and senior White House adviser Ivanka Trump. It is unknown if Ivanka has been tested or quarantined. Barr stayed home on Friday and will not be getting tested after consulting with the CDC, a Department of Justice spokesperson told BuzzFeed News in an email.

Dutton had also met with Kellyanne Conway, counselor to the president, and Joe Grogan, director of the Domestic Policy Council, during his trip to the US in early March. It is unknown whether Conway or Grogan were tested. South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham also met with Dutton and has announced he’s self-quarantining and awaiting test results.

Reps. Doug Collins and Mark Meadows, who were exposed to the infected individual at CPAC, later met at the White House with Trump. Only after the White House visit did they learn of their exposure; both chose to self-quarantine. Meadows tested negative.
