US President Donald Trump's diagnosis for the novel coronavirus came in the midst of a particularly hectic time for the Republican president, who is campaigning for re-election on Nov. 3 and working to appoint a new justice to the Supreme Court.
Here is a look at Trump's activities as he met with and addressed thousands of people in the week before the announcement of his positive COVID-19 test in the early hours of Friday:
NEW JERSEY FUNDRAISER
Trump on Thursday, Oct. 1, flew to his resort in Bedminster, New Jersey for a private fundraiser, where news reports said he posed for pictures with supporters. He made the trip after the White House learned that Trump's adviser Hope Hicks had tested positive. Hours later, he said on Twitter that he and first lady Melania Trump had tested positive for the virus.
