File:Crede Bailey (left) White House Security Office, fell 'gravely ill' from Covid 19 in late September 2020.jpg

This image of Crede Bailey, from facebook, was widely republished. I am claiming fair use.

He seems to be the first known individual who worked in the White House, who fell ill from Covid 19.

He fell ill prior to the infamous presentation of Trump's SCOTUS candidate, and wasn't at that event. Hope Hicks, who was present, was described as the first "superspreader" candidate. Then the Republican Party Chair was described as the superspreader candidate, since she seemed to precede Hicks.

More recently he has been described as the superspreader candidate.

Why would his case be more dangerous? He is male, clearly obese, and he seems to be pushing retirement age.

From the reporting, I suspect he actually passed away, and his body is being kept alive, artificially, so the Trump White House does not have to acknowledge a white house worker died of Covid.

I will look for reports of his death, after the election.

update

Bailey spent several months in intensive care. His illness required amputations, and he was left with seriously reduced capability.

The public recently learned that Donald Trump was ACTUALLY diagnosed at least a week earlier, and kept his infection a secret. He was infected during a Presidential debate. He arrived late, and debate organizers trusted "the honor system", and took his false claim to be infection free at face value.
