The Queens Eagle reports:
At least one person has been hospitalized for COVID-19 after attending an indoor Christmas dance party hosted by the Whitestone Republican Club earlier this month, the Eagle has learned.
James Trent, chair of the affiliated Queens Village Republican Club, was admitted to North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset where he is recovering from COVID-19, he said from his hospital room Wednesday morning.
Trent said he first began experiencing COVID symptoms two days after attending the Dec. 9 party, which featured a conga line of maskless patrons dancing to the BeeGees in a widely viewed video first reported by the Eagle.

An attendee has now been hospitalized with COVID.
“I wasn’t on the conga line. I ate by myself,” he said. “I don’t know how I got this.” https://t.co/2SGJvhOC6bpic.twitter.com/a00uH7JRhm
