WASHINGTON (VG) Donald Trump is holding his first public event since he was infected with the coronavirus. Two thousand people are said to have been invited to watch him speak from the balcony of the White House.
President Donald Trump speaks to the people at 8:00 p.m. Norway time for the first time after being infected with the coronavirus
Two thousand people have been invited to see the president, a source close to the event tells CNN. It’s unclear exactly how many are present, but photos and video from the site show several hundred supporters standing together on the lawn in front of the White House. Some have face masks, many don’t.
– On behalf of myself and the first lady, this has been an incredible turnout. Our country must fight this cruel “China virus,” says Trump from the balcony.
SPEAKER: President Donald Trump meets with voters outside the White House for the first time since he was positive.
The event provokes reactions. At least 15 people tested positive for the coronavirus after a ceremony in Rosehagen at the White House last Saturday.
The subject of the speech is “Law and Order”, and protests across the country after George Floyd’s death. Trump’s speech is officially tied to his presidency, rather than the election campaign, the BBC writes.
– I want to thank everyone this afternoon, for some great colors. Where did you get the great colors? I want to wear one of them instead of a white shirt, Trump continues.
– I have done more for blacks than any other president of the United States.

Tested again
In the days before Donald Trump tested positive for the virus, the president and several people in his election campaign participated in meetings and events in various parts of the country. Several Trump and White House affiliates have been confirmed to be infected.
The president was hospitalized until Monday. His advice to the nation after three days in the hospital was that they do not have to fear the covid. “Don’t let it rule your life,” Trump wrote on Twitter.
Trump and his administration have faced criticism for handling the pandemic, as well as a lax approach to mask wearing and social distancing in the White House, and in recent days, confusing reports about how ill the president has been.
In an interview with Fox News that aired Friday night, Trump said he has been retested for coronavirus, but has not yet received the results, and that he feels great.
– I was tested again and I know I am on the lower end of the scale or completely healthy, Trump said, adding that he no longer takes medication for the virus.

In an interview with CBS on radio National Institute of Health Director Anthony Fauci says there was undoubtedly a massive infection incident at the White House last week.
In the interview, Fauci talks about how he has recommended the use of masks for at least six months.
– We found that 40 to 45 percent have no symptoms, and those people are a large proportion of people who actually infect others. So the main part of the recommendation is that everyone should wear masks, all the time.
Journalist and CBS, Steven Portnoy asks Fauci over the White House has been good enough to wear masks.
– The figures speak for themselves, we have had a massive infection event in the White House. They were in a situation where people were very close together and did not wear masks.
