Donald Trump hid first positive coronavirus test
The American president already knew he was sick with coronavirus, but he continued to communicate with people and give interviews.
US President Donald Trump hid his coronavirus infection, although he knew the test results, even before Fox News, where he spoke about his assistant Hope Hicks’ diagnosis. On Sunday October 4, The Wall Street Journal reported this, citing sources.
In an interview with journalist Sean Hannity, he later said that he passed the test, but stressed that he did not know the results.
According to the WSJ, Trump was already aware of the readings from the first rapid test at the time, but was waiting for the results of the second test to appear.
According to the rules for White House employees, a second, more accurate test for coronavirus is performed when an infection is detected with a rapid test.
In addition, according to the source, Trump privately asked one of his aides, who knew the results of the first test, not to reveal them.
“Don’t tell anyone,” he said.
Trump and his wife Melania are sick with coronavirus reported on Twitter on Friday, October 2.
Trump briefly left the hospital Sunday to greet his supporters. The doctor later criticized him for this, saying that he was risking people’s lives for the sake of “political theater production.”
