Many Secret Service agents who attended President Trump's rally in Oklahoma last weekend have been quarantined as a precaution after some tested positive for coronavirus, US media report.
The story was first reported by the Washington Post, and an unnamed law enforcement official told CNN that the number of those in quarantine was in the "low" dozens.
Before the event, the president’s campaign team said six staffers - including two Secret Service agents - had tested positive after travelling to Tulsa, where the rally was held. Another two staffers tested positive afterwards.
An unnamed source told CNN that the recent decision to quarantine Secret Service agents was made after two tested positive - but it is unclear if they are the same pair whose infections were confirmed before the rally.
President Trump drew criticism after going ahead with the election rally despite rising cases in Oklahoma. Attendees were given temperature checks and hand sanitiser, but were not required to wear masks.
The campaign said it had received a million ticket requests, but only 6,200 people turned up at the 19,200-seat stadium.
