Washington, Oct 18 US President Donald Trump has wished Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Kamala Harris "the best" and hoped that she was "in good shape" after an aide and a flight crew member involved in his rival Joe Bidens presidential campaign tested positive for the novel coronavirus, the media reported.

The President made the remarks while addressing supporters at re-election rally in Muskegon, Michigan, on Saturday evening, The Hill news website reported.

"I hope she's in good shape, because a number of people in her group have caught Covid-19, so we all wish her best.

"Do we all wish her best? Yes, we do. We hope she's doing well," he added.
