Dr. Sean Conley (40) and White House Secretary Mark Meados (61), the doctor’s physicians, made conflicting comments about the exact condition of the President of the United States, Donald Trump, who was confirmed to have a new infection. by coronavirus (Corona 19), adding to the confusion. There have been reports that the President has used an oxygen respirator prior to admission to Walter Reed County Hospital and has been in very concerning condition for the past 24 hours. It is analyzed that the fact that there is confusion in the White House in a sensitive period shows that their situation is not easy.
On the morning of the 3rd (local time), Dr. Conley was optimistic in a briefing, saying, “The president has not had a fever in the last 24 hours.” Immediately after this interview, Meados made the opposite comment, saying, “For the past 24 hours, the president’s health has been very concerned.” “The president will stay in the hospital for at least a few more days. It is not yet clear if he will make a full recovery. “The New York Times (NYT) also said:” The president had a respiratory problem at the White House on Day 2 and the oxygen level in his blood dropped, so staff The doctor provided an oxygen respirator. The president’s move to the hospital was to ensure that the doctor had better equipment to perform tests and be treated more quickly in case of problems, “Meadows said.
The Associated Press said: “The fact that the secretary’s chief of staff and the treating physician, who are key personnel, make conflicting comments, shows that the president’s situation is dire. It may break trust in the White House. the November 3 presidential elections are imminent, public concerns are increasing. “
Meados, who was the fourth congressman from the ruling Republican Party, went on to cover for the president in the House of Representatives during the president’s impeachment last year and moved to the White House in March this year. Dr. Conley, who majored in osteopathic medicine (medicine that emphasizes the physical placement of bone and muscle tissue), joined the White House in 2018 while working at the Naval Medical Center. Although he was not an expert in viruses and immunology, he claimed that chloroquine, an anti-malaria treatment, is good for Corona 19 and, like the president, generated controversy. The timing of the Corona 19 president’s diagnosis is also controversial. Dr. Conley said on the morning of the 3rd: “It has been 72 hours since the president tested positive.” In other words, it means that you learned about the confirmation on the morning of the 30th of last month. When criticism emerged that “they were forced to carry out activities abroad for more than two days even after being confirmed,” he released a press release explaining that “the president’s first diagnosis was made on the night of the 1st.” . . President Trump has completed two doses of remdesivir, which the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved for use in the treatment. In addition, he received prescriptions for treatment with ‘REGN-COV2’ antibodies, vitamin D, melatonin and aspirin from the American pharmaceutical company Regeneron, which is in phase 3 clinical trials. Lung ultrasounds and heart tests are also being received, kidney and liver. In addition to him, Dr. Conley said, six doctors, five nurses and a pharmacist serve the president. Three of the doctors are lung specialists and two are infectious disease specialists. Even if President Trump is 74 years old and cured of obesity, concerns are raised that he will suffer from Corona 19 complications. At last year’s health exam, he was judged ‘mildly obese’ at a height of 192cm, weighing of 110.6 kg and a body mass index (BMI) of 30.5. At that time, Dr. Conley recommended to the president that he lose weight.
As the controversy grew, President Trump showed his health by posting a four-minute video on Twitter at 6:50 pm on the 3rd. “I will be back and the treatment I am receiving is like a miracle,” he emphasized. Although it was a bit shabby, the condition was unclear. Through the video it is interpreted that he expressed his willingness to reverse the last minute in the presidential election, ignoring his concerns about his absence and the confusion of his staff.
Shortly after the President’s video was released, Dr. Conley wrote in a document to a White House spokesperson: “The President finished his second drug remdesivir without complications. I am not coming out of the crisis, but I am cautiously optimistic ”. Meadows also told Reuters: “The president is in good shape. The medical staff are satisfied with his vital signs ”. The NYT raised the possibility that the president was upset with the Meadows’ early comments and that this could have led to the water level control.
