At least eight confirmed COVID-19 infections have been noted among people who attended last week’s White House event, during which President Donald Trump officially announced his Supreme Court nominee.

Trump, at a Sept. 26 event in the Rose Garden attended by around 150 people, nominated Amy Coney Barrett to fill the Supreme Court seat left vacant after Ruth Bader Ginsburg died.
