Hours after being diagnosed with Covid-19, the president of the United States, Donald Trump, was transferred to the Walter Reed Military Hospital in Maryland.
The move raised questions about the health of the 74-year-old president, who fell ill shortly before the US elections. According to government officials, his hospitalization is a precautionary measure and he will remain there for a few days.
A White House spokesman said the president “is still in a good mood and has mild symptoms.” The American president, who is feeling “tired”, received a dose of the cocktail of experimental antibodies developed by the pharmaceutical company Regeneron. According to CNN (citing a source familiar with the matter), Trump developed a fever on Friday morning.
The president of the United States belongs to the so-called high-risk group, both because of his age and because of his overweight.
In any case, the illness came at the worst possible time for Trump, as he is forced to quarantine for 14 days at the peak of the pre-election period, with elections scheduled for November 3. Trump is now forced to cancel all of his upcoming speeches and rallies, while it remains extremely doubtful whether the second debate with Joe Biden, which is scheduled for October 15, will take place.
