NEW YORK (Dagbladet): The president of the United States did not say a word to the press, but kept his thumb up when he walked a few short steps from the White House to a helicopter that took him to Walter Reed Hospital for treatment for a disease coronary.
– I want to thank everyone for the great support. I’m going to Walter Reed Hospital. I think I’m doing really well, but we have to make sure things go well. The first lady is doing very well. So thank you very much for the support. I will never forget. Thank you, Trump said in a short video message on Twitter before going to the hospital.
– The president is exhausted
The White House says the president will stay in the hospital for a few days and continue to serve as president. It is said that the president had a fever throughout the day. Although the White House claims he has mild symptoms. However, it is perceived as very dramatic that he is now hospitalized.
It is not clear when the president has been infected, but normally the incubation period is five to six days, writes FHI on its website.
Two senators
The first lady of the United States, Melania Trump, also tested positive for the coronavirus, but should be in better shape than her husband, according to CNN. Trump’s close adviser, Hope Hicks, tested positive Thursday.
Right after Trump’s news that he was infected, the head of the Republican National Committee, Ronna McDaniel, also announced that she, too, had tested positive. She was with Trump on Thursday and Friday of last week, but tested negative before these meetings, Politico reports.
Two Republican senators, Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Mike Lee of Utah, tested positive for the coronavirus on Friday, the Washington Post reports. They both attended Trump’s event in Rosehagen last Saturday where he introduced his candidate for Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett. Hundreds of people sat here close together, most without masks.
Barrett himself is said to have already had the coronavirus earlier this summer, several US outlets report.
There was also John Jenkins, who is president of the University of Notre Dame. In a letter to students Monday, he regretted not wearing a mask.
– To regret
“I regret my error in judgment in not wearing a mask,” Jenkins wrote, among other things, reports CNN.
On Friday, he also tested positive for the coronavirus and says he has mild symptoms. Jenkins is now isolated and works from home.
It is currently unclear what will happen to the appointment of a new Supreme Court judge, as senators must now be in quarantine.
The White House Journalists Association also claims that three journalists who have been close to Trump in the past week have tested positive for
The presidential debate in Cleveland on Tuesday also appears to have spread the virus.

Dissemination of the debate
At least 11 people tested positive for coronavirus after the presidential debate in Cleveland, according to local authorities.
– Cleveland is aware of the positive tests for covid-19 after the presidential debate on September 29. We encourage anyone who has been in contact with someone who has tested positive and to self-quarantine to write to local authorities, according to NBC News.
First lady Melania Trump, Trump’s children and other members of Trump’s staff sat in the aisle during the presidential debate. They were not wearing face masks, as they were actually asked to do. It is also said that they refused to wear bandages after representatives of the organizer asked them to do so.

– Oh my God
Kristina Urquiza’s father died of the coronavirus. She was one of the guests of the Democratic presidential candidate, Joe Biden. She was surprised to see that none of Trump’s people wore face masks.
– When I looked to the right, not a single person on Trump’s side was wearing a face mask, including the Trump family, Melania Trump, and Trump’s children. I remember thinking. Oh my God. “No one is going to decide that these people wear bandages,” Urquiza told NBC News.
The president of the United States has also kept a very high pace in the election campaign and met with many people at various other events in the last week.
