From News Nation:
“Almost 900 Secret Service
employees were infected with COVID”
Roughly 900 U.S. Secret Service
employees tested positive for the coronavirus, according to government records
obtained by a government watchdog group.
Secret Service records show that
881 people on the agency payroll were diagnosed with COVID-19 between March 1,
2020 and March 9, 2021, according to documents obtained by Citizens for
Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. The records received through a Freedom
of Information Act request did not include the names or assignments of those
who tested positive. But more than half — 477 — worked in the special agent
division, which is responsible for protecting the president and vice president,
as well as the families of these leaders and other government officials. CREW
noted that the Trump administration took actions that risked exposure to Secret
Service workers, but it could not verify a direct connection to possible
infections because the identities of those infected remains private. After
President Donald Trump contracted COVID-19, he took a drive in his presidential
vehicle as Secret Service personnel drove and protected him. The former
president also held multiple large rallies and events, including the
announcement of Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to the Supreme Court, despite
restrictions on public gatherings.
^ You have to feel sorry for the
Secret Service Members and their families. The Secret Service were simply doing
their jobs in protecting Government Officials like the President and their
families and became infected with Covid while doing those jobs - a lot of the time because the Government
Officials didn’t take Covid or the Health Measures needed to prevent its spread
seriously. ^
