The report said Bailey is in charge of credentialing visitors to the White House, and also works closely on the grounds with the Secret Service.
The White House has not publicly acknowledged or commented on Bailey’s diagnosis, but over a dozen people who attended the Rose Garden event where President Trump announced Amy Coney Barrett as his Supreme Court nominee have contracted the coronavirus.
President Trump himself is currently battling the coronavirus while downplaying it at the same time following his VIP treatment at Walter Reed Military National Center.
