NEW YORK When it comes to the health of presidents, no administration has ever been particularly generous with information.

“We are working hard to get back, I have to go back because we still have to make the United States great again, we have done a very good job but there are still some steps left, we have to finish the job. I think I’ll be back soon. I am impatient to finish the campaign the way we started it and the way we are doing it “: Donald Trump said in a video posted on Twitter and recorded in the hospital, where he talks about a suit without a tie, with a little air. exhausted, and reading from the notes.

In fact, Trump’s personal physician, Sean Conley, said that the president claimed to feel so good that he was “ready to leave the hospital immediately,” a wish that was immediately curtailed by the medical team who intend to hold him at least five days, how long therapy will last. impact to which it is subjected. Both Dr. Conley and Dr. Brian Garibaldi have ensured that everything is going smoothly and that the president has a regular heart rate and blood pressure, while both kidney and liver function are normal: “We are very happy with his progress.” Conley said.
The doctors, nurses and EVERYONE at the GREAT Walter Reed Medical Center, and others from equally amazing institutions that have joined them, are AMAZING !!! Tremendous progress has been made in the last 6 months in the fight against this PLAGUE. With your help, I feel good!

THE OTHER VERSION
And yet, privately, sources in the White House itself told reporters at the pool, the small group that follows the president on a daily basis, that the president not only had to receive supplemental oxygen on Friday, but contrary to the statements from the doctors, “his vital signs in the last 24 hours were very worrying and the next 48 hours will be decisive for his health.” Far from sharing the apparent satisfaction of the doctors, the source said: “We are not yet on a path clear towards a full recovery. “It appears that the anonymous source was even the presidential chief of staff, Mark Meadows, whose voice was picked up on the microphones just when he said he wanted to be summoned only” unofficially. “In addition, the doctors also helped create confusion, as Conley, speaking at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, said the diagnosis was 72 hours earlier and Garibaldi announced that the president had received a first dose of the antiviral Re mdesivir upon arrival at the hospital. and that he had started therapy with Regn-Cov2, the experimental cocktail of two monoclonal antibodies, 48 hours earlier at the White House. But this chronology does not match what Trump himself said.
THE COMPLAINT
The White House yesterday afternoon tried to correct the doctors, saying they must be confused. In fact, if the timeline were what Conley and Garibaldi said, it would at least mean that Trump participated in rallies and meetings with his supporters knowing that he tested positive for covid-19. Fox reporter Chris Wallace, who moderated the debate last Tuesday in Cleveland, publicly denounced that the presidential group had been late to the Cleveland Clinic and therefore had not had time to undergo the test that everyone else had to undergo before to be able to participate in the confrontation with the Democratic candidate Joe Biden.
Wallace explained that it was necessary to “resort to the honor system”, that is, the organizers trusted the word of the president, who had assured that everyone had already undergone a test previously. Of the presidential group, however, a few hours later both Councilor Hope Hicks and First Lady Melania, as well as Trump himself, were positive. Wallace vigorously complained on his own channel, usually on Trump’s side, that the presidential group had not even followed the rule of wearing the mask, while those who followed Biden had obeyed the Cleveland Clinic’s request.
THE TWEET
Yesterday afternoon, after long hours of unusual silence on twitter, Trump reappeared with a twitter: «The doctors, nurses and the entire great Walter Reed Medical Center, and others from similar, incredible institutions, who have joined them are crazy. Great progress has been made in the last six months in fighting this pest. With your help, I feel good. ‘
The message was analyzed by experts who immediately suggested that it was not in the hands of the president, that he never uses commas. Meanwhile, various sources reveal that the decision to hospitalize the president came about because his condition was deteriorating and he himself was very anxious: “Am I ending up like Stan Chera?” he asked collaborators, referring to an entrepreneur friend of his who was killed by the virus last April.
