(Fighting Neo-Coronary Pneumonia) Trump made his first public appearance after being diagnosed and transferred to a military hospital.
China News Service, Washington, October 2 (Reporter Chen Mengtong) US President Trump made his public debut on the 2nd after being diagnosed with the new corona virus. He took a flight from the White House to a military hospital in Maryland that afternoon and will continue to work there.
The White House released the news at dawn on the 2nd, confirming that Trump and First Lady Melania tested positive for the new corona virus. Later, Trump announced that he immediately entered the “isolation and rehabilitation process.”
White House Press Secretary McNerney issued a statement on the 2nd, saying Trump was “in a good mood, with mild symptoms and working all day.” Out of cautious considerations, following the advice of doctors and medical experts, Trump will work in the president’s office at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in the coming days.
At approximately 6:16 p.m., Trump donned a mask, left the White House alone, greeted reporters present, and left by helicopter.
The White House physician, Sean Conley, issued a memo saying that on the afternoon of the 2nd, Trump “was still tired, but in a good mood.” Melania “is in good condition, with a mild cough and headache”, “the rest of the first members of the family tested negative for the virus”.
Conley revealed that Trump received a single 8 grams of anti-coronavirus “cocktail” therapy consisting of multiple monoclonal antibodies that day, and took zinc, vitamin D and aspirin.
There is no specific drug for the new coronavirus infection. Monoclonal antibody therapy involves scientists identifying specific antibodies in the plasma of recovered patients that can effectively neutralize the new coronavirus and then produce this antibody in large quantities by cloning a single cell for the prevention and treatment of the new one coronavirus infection.
Walter Reed National Military Medical Center is also the hospital where Trump undergoes routine annual medical exams. Trump is 74 years old, he doesn’t smoke, he doesn’t drink, he likes fast food, he drinks Coca-Cola and he loves to play golf. According to a medical report released by the White House in June this year, Trump is 6 feet 3 inches (1.92 meters) tall and weighs 244 pounds (110 kg).
The Pentagon released a statement stating that Defense Secretary Esper and US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Milli last met with Trump at the White House event on September 27. Esper tested negative on September 28 and 30. Milli was tested on the morning of day 2 and the result was negative.
The above statement also emphasized that the alert level of the United States Department of Defense has not changed. The combat readiness and capabilities of the US military have not changed. The US military command and control structure was not affected at all.
There are 32 days until the US presidential elections. Trump’s campaign team released a statement on the 2nd saying that due to Trump’s diagnosis, all campaign activities involving him will be moved online or postponed.
Trump and Democratic presidential candidate Biden were originally scheduled to hold the second and third presidential debates on the 15th and 22nd, respectively. At present, it is not clear whether the relevant provisions will change.
On the night of the 2nd, Trump also released an 18-second video, saying he and Melania were “good” and thanking everyone who had blessed them. This is the first time he has updated his status on social media after 15 hours have passed since he confirmed the confirmed news. (Finish)
