What member of the Obama security detail has Swine Flu?

I just read on the "Washington Post" that a member of the Obama security team possibly has Swine Flu? Who was it? Is Barack Obama at risk?
Tip for best answer: M$2.00

"The employee, who was not named by the White House, is an aide to Energy Secretary Steven Chu and helped plan the Mexico trip for the U.S. delegation that started April 16...

... Press secretary Robert Gibbs remained steadfast that the president was never at risk of contracting the flu, which has quickly spread across the globe.

The man visited his brother on April 19 and his nephew became ill. In the next two days, the aide's wife and son also became ill, Gibbs said. The three members of the aide's family are being tested to see if they had the same strain of swine flu that is threatening to become a pandemic. They have all since recovered.

Gibbs said the aide is listed as suspected of having had the virus, but that the virus has run its course and the employee is back at work.

The aide worked on Chu's security detail and went ahead to prepare for the trip. He attended a dinner with Obama on April 16 but Gibbs said the aide never was close enough to Obama to put the president at risk..."

According to AP:

"The employee, who was not named by the White House, is an aide to Energy Secretary Steven Chu and helped plan the Mexico trip.
"This individual never flew on Air Force One," Gibbs said. "He was asked specifically if he ever came within 6 feet of the president and the answer to that was no.""
