The White House organized a “super transmission” event for the new coronavirus, which causes covid-19, considered this Saturday by Anthony Fauci, the main American specialist in infectious diseases.
Anthony Fauci was referring to the event organized around Donald Trump’s announcement of the election of Amy Coney Barrett as Supreme Court justice, explains the Public newspaper.
At least eleven people, including the President of the United States, Donald Trump, and the first lady, Donald Trump, got infected in this meeting, whose outbreak, the US expert believes, could have been prevented.
This is not the first time that Fauci has publicly criticized the White House’s management of the covid-19 pandemic, which has claimed at least 213,570 lives in the United States.
Trump says he’s in good health
Donald Trump says he is in good health due to the experimental treatment he received when he was admitted to the hospital. In an interview this Friday with Fox News, the president of the United States revealed that the covid-19 left him without strength.
“I didn’t feel strong. I didn’t have any respiratory problems that many people have, I didn’t have any of that. Still, I didn’t feel very strong, I didn’t feel like president of the United States of America if necessary. The doctors at the hospital were amazing, they came from everywhere. I think it’s good to be president, ”he added.
Despite watching, Donald Trump says he no longer takes any medication for the disease: “I will be on call until the doctors fire me. I have already done several tests and, at the moment, I am free of medications, I do not take any medication, probably for eight hours ”.
This was the Donald Trump’s first interview in front of the cameras after testing positive for covid-19 and being hospitalized as a “precaution.”
Fauci also felt that Trump’s statements about his experimental treatment, and which he labeled a “cure,” can cause a lot of confusion.
“It depends a lot on what is meant by medicine, because that word generates a lot of confusion (…) There are promising results in clinical trials, but its overall effectiveness and security have not been tested yetAnthony Fauci justified to CBS Radio.
