Trump said he is looking at the case closely and that he has not spoken with Russian President Vladimir Putin about it, according to Al Jazeera. The Russian health authority said laboratory tests confirmed two cases of Covid-19 and two of rhinovirus. The WHO said that, based on unofficial information, the public health risk to the general population appears low.
