Zero members of Congress have died, while at least 18 have tested positive. The disease mostly kills the poor and those who do not have access to quality medical care. Trump will probably be fine.

- starpilot 6y agoNot a member of Congress. A bunch of state level politicians have died too, but they definitely don't have the clout/power of senators/reps.
- kart23 6y agoAgreed he most likely won't die, but Boris Johnson had a very severe case, and was in pretty bad shape for a while.
- apexalpha 6y agoWhile almost everyone is "probably fine" after he is in a risk age group at 74. Being overweight and not eating healthy is only going to make it riskier. He will have world class treatment, though. But it's still a roll of the dice at that age.
