A brief press conference at Walter Reed Medical Center on Saturday sought to provide answers, but may only have raised more questions about President Trump’s clinical status since his COVID-19 diagnosis.
How come Melania stays home a the White House and Trump goes to the hospital? The rosy picture of Trump's health doesn't match the circumstances or the medications
She is young and healthy. He is old with several co-morbidity factors. Also he needs show to duck another debate debacle.
I understand wanting to "play down" the concern for his health, and project an optimistic outlook, but the doctor giving the press conference couldn't lie, so he was just super selective in his wording, which raises more questions. Also the evasiveness of the timeline for testing, and whether the tests were the most accurate NAAT type or the less accurate rapid test, which often gives a false negative, adds to suspicion that either testing was lax, or he knowingly was ill while attending events maskless.
Kinda gotta wonder if he was sick prior to Hope Hicks' confirmation, and that they were trying to hide it all, until the news got out. Seems that after the news of Hope Hicks, the WH was trying to pin Trump's illness on his close proximity to her. Perhaps it was the other way around. Who knows. So much spin and hazy information, but the public deserves to know the reality of how the President contracted covid besides just the obviously careless nonchalance about social distancing and mask wearing.
Normally 2 weeks' incubation, so look back.......
I hope he's suffering.
Unfortunately, he's getting the best care in the world, and not suffering like the many less fortunate folks who were denied testing, or if lucky enough to qualify for a test had to wait several days for results, quarantining alone during the wait, and not receiving care.
While he is getting the best care in the world, at tax payer expense, the republican party is scheming to take away the health care of millions affected by the virus.
@barjoe I am positive he has exceeded $750 in medical care in one day alone.
@HippieChick58 The helicopter ride alone cost more than that.
@Lorajay I am sure it did, it costs upwards from $5000 just to start the engine.
