Several cadets brought back for graduation at West Point where Trump's to speak test positive for COVID-19

"About 1 ½ per cent" of the Class of 2020 who were brought back have tested positive, the spokesperson told CNN Sunday. None of the infected cadets were symptomatic, the spokesperson said, adding "no cadet has contracted through person-to-person contact while under the Army's care" and that those infected were isolated. The graduating class size is approximately 1,000 cadets.

In April, the President announced he was going to address West Point's commencement ceremony taking place June 13. His decision to do so has been criticized for putting cadets' health at risk. West Point said in a statement in late April the graduation procession "will look different from recent graduation ceremonies due to current force health protection requirements" related to the coronavirus pandemic.

West Point's campus is in New York state, which has been the state hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic so far. Cadets had been away from campus since early March.

Fake News..

At least they aren't out stealing stuff like many other fine upstanding students.

It’ll be a great speech as usual. I’m glad they are on top of things and screened the 1000 cadets, and isolated those found to be infected from their time at home.
