Trump Aide Tests Positive; Amazon’s 20,000 Cases: Virus Update – Yahoo Finance

(Bloomberg) -- Hope Hicks, one of President Donald Trump’s closest aides, who traveled with him to and from the presidential debate on Tuesday, tested positive for coronavirus infection, according to people familiar with the matter. Amazon.com Inc. said close to 20,000 of its employees had tested positive for the virus during the pandemic. Pfizer Inc.
