BAY NEWS 9
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS NATIONWIDE
PUBLISHED 5:43 PM ET MAR. 19, 2021
Former President Donald Trumps Palm Beach club has been partially closed because of a COVID outbreak.
Thats according to several people familiar with the situation, including a club member who received a phone call about the closure Friday. A receptionist at the Mar-a-Lago club confirmed the news to The Associated Press, saying it was closed until further notice, but declined to comment further.
A person familiar with club operations said that, out of an abundance of caution, the club had partially closed a section for a short period of time and quarantined some of its workers. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the situation by name.
The extent of the outbreak, what portions of the club were closed or how it was affecting the former first family werent immediately clear.
