A growing number of White House staff, senior Republicans and top government officials have tested positive for Covid-19 since President Donald Trump revealed he had contracted the respiratory disease.

The infections have roiled campaigning for the November 3 election, rattled financial markets and slowed the work of Congress, with the Senate vowing to delay any votes now that three members of the Republican majority have tested positive.

Several people who met with Mr Trump last week said they had since tested negative, but it can take days for someone who has been exposed to the virus to develop symptoms or to test positive.
