US President Donald Trump continues to fight the corona virus, and his doctors have now admitted that the symptoms were more severe than was initially announced. Meanwhile, Trump himself leaves the hospital and surprises medical professionals with dangerous “political theater.”
The president of the United States, Donald Trump, infected with the corona virus, paid a surprise visit to his followers outside the hospital. From a black SUV, Trump greeted his fans in Bethesda, north of Washington, as seen in a video on Twitter.
Trump was wearing a mask inside the car, in which at least two other people were sitting. In a prerecorded video message later posted on Trump’s Twitter profile, the president said, “I’m about to make a little surprise visit.” He praised the “great patriots” outside the hospital. After the short car ride, Trump returned to the clinic. In the video, Trump also revealed that he had learned “a lot” about Covid-19. His illness is “very interesting” and a “lesson” for him.
Meanwhile, doctors were horrified by Trump’s appearance. The risk of corona transmission in the car is high, said Dr. James Phillips, a general practitioner at Walter Reed Military Hospital, where Trump is hospitalized due to his coronavirus infection. “Each person in the vehicle must be quarantined for 14 days during this completely unnecessary trip by the president,” Phillips said. “You could get sick. You could die. For the political theater. Trump ordered that you risk your life for a drama. This is insane.”
Democratic Senator Brian Schatz accused Trump of endangering his own security people: “You are aware of the risk associated with the job, but the risk should not come from the protected person.”
White House spokesman Judd Deere said that before the trip, “reasonable precautions were taken” to protect the president and his supporters. “The trip was qualified as safe by the medical team,” he said.
Trump keeps falling behind
Meanwhile, the president’s approval fell to a new low: A poll for the “Wall Street Journal” and broadcaster NBC showed 39 percent approval for Trump, his rival in the November 3 presidential election, Joe Biden of the US Democrats, however, came in at 53 percent.
At the same time, a growing number of infected people were reported around the president, including three Republican senators, Trump’s campaign manager Bill Stepien and his campaign advisor Chris Christie, former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway and the leader. Republican Party, Ronna McDaniel.
Trump himself has been treated for a corona infection at the Walter Reed Military Hospital in Bethesda north of Washington since Friday night. On Sunday, his doctors said the president could return to the White House soon. Doctors admitted, however, that the president did not do well on Friday morning, contrary to claims to the contrary: Trump had had a high fever and his blood oxygen saturation had decreased. During this time they gave him oxygen.
