The news follows news of Mark Meadows' positive test, as well as news that a handful of other West Wing aides had tested positive.
Carson is unique among top Trump officials in that he is a doctor - a renowned neurosurgeon, in fact, who famously emerged as a flash-in-the-pan challenger to then-candidate Trump before Trump swept the primaries. He's also unique in that he's served in his post since the beginning of the Trump Administration, keeping out of sight with a host of low-profile assignments like being one of the administration's point men on "Opportunity Zones".
