The president appeared on Fox’s Tucker Carlson Tonight show, which the White House said underwent a “medical evaluation” by Marc Siegel, a physician who appears frequently on Fox.

“I’m not taking medication right now, (I was taking my last medication) probably eight hours ago,” Trump told Siegel. It is not yet clear when this interview was filmed.

D. Trump’s doctors have previously said that the president received an aggressive cocktail of drugs, including the steroid dexamethasone, commonly associated with severe cases of COVID-19. The president also said he was retested for the virus.

“I was tested again and I don’t know any numbers or information yet, but I was tested again and I know that I am at the bottom of the scale or not sick at all,” he said.

He said he didn’t know when their next test would be, adding that “it will probably be tomorrow … they test every other day.” The president also said the virus had suppressed his energy levels and said he “didn’t feel very alive.”

He also stated that “he had no respiratory problems.” His doctors previously said they had given him extra oxygen at least twice, and the president himself later said lung tests showed there was some “blockage.”

Trump said he did not know where he had contracted the virus, adding: “It is very contagious. That’s one of the things he learns that it is a contagious disease. “
