Trump had not experienced difficulty in breathing, and had not been given supplemental oxygen, his doctor says. However, other sources contradict this and say next 48 hours will be critical.
US President Donald Trump was “doing very well” and is fever-free at a military hospital on Saturday a day after he tested positive for Covid-19, the president’s doctor said.
But a person familiar with the situation said some of Trump’s vital signs over the last 24 hours were very concerning, and the next 48 hours will be critical in terms of his care.
Trump was moved to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center near Washington on Friday just hours after his diagnosis, an extraordinary development that upended the US presidential race a month before the November 3 election.
White House doctor Sean P. Conley told reporters outside the hospital on Saturday that Trump had not experienced difficulty breathing, and had not been given supplemental oxygen.❐
