Now the former First Lady has also been hit: Hillary Clinton has contracted the corona virus. Her husband, ex-US President Bill Clinton, has so far been spared.
Former US presidential candidate and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been infected with the corona virus.
A test was positive and she had the symptoms of a mild cold, the 74-year-old wrote on Twitter. She feels good and is “more grateful than ever” for the protection of the vaccinations, which protect against serious illnesses. Her husband, former US President Bill Clinton (75), had a negative corona test and felt good. The family will isolate themselves at home and are grateful for “film recommendations,” she continued.
The prominent Democrat Clinton, who was Secretary of State under ex-President Barack Obama from 2009 to 2013, ran against Republican Donald Trump in the 2016 election. She lost the election and then largely withdrew from politics.
