President Donald Trump tweeted early Friday morning that he and first lady Melania Trump have been diagnosed with COVID-19.
Trump's diagnosis came just hours after it was revealed his close adviser, Hope Hicks, had contracted the virus. She was with the president in Cleveland for the debate on Tuesday and for a rally in Minnesota on Wednesday. Sources tell ABC News she is symptomatic.
The president was slated to hold several rallies in battleground states in the coming days, but those are now on hold while he isolates at the White House.

Schumer called for an immediate contact tracing effort following CDC guidelines, and for all those who came in contact with those exposed to the virus to self-isolate.
"That includes Judge Amy Coney Barrett and anyone she was in contact with. It must also include people in the Senate with whom those individuals came into contact with, and their contacts," Schumer said. "Though they have not done so in the past, the administration must now follow the science and all recommended health protocols in order to not put additional people at risk. And they must be completely transparent."
Schumer continued: "Finally, what happened to President Trump is a reminder of why the whole country, including Senators and staff, must follow the science and follow the protocols laid out by the CDC and public health officials. When you ignore the science, you don’t wear a mask, and you don’t follow social distancing guidelines, it puts you and everyone around you at risk. Following science is a must."

She called on people to continue to wear a mask that covers their nose and mouth, wash their hands with soap and water and maintain six feet of social distancing to help "beat this enemy" of COVID-19 and to remain vigilant.
"My sincere hope is that today's news will serve as a wakeup call to every single American," Whitmer added.
