Interesting article from Riverside health system here in Virginia.

When COVID-19 symptoms progress from mild to moderate, you’ll know because one or more of the following may occur:

Your fever will be above 100.4 F
You’ll develop a more persistent cough
You’ll experience temporary shortness of breath when you exert yourself – going up the stairs for instance
You’ll feel like you need to stay in bed

So Trump was reported to have cough and Fever he is at that stage.

It can progress to:

Moderate symptoms can progress into severe symptoms suddenly, especially in people who are older or who have chronic medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes, cancer or chronic respiratory problems. There have even been reports of people with mild to moderate symptoms feeling better and then suddenly getting worse and requiring hospitalization.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says if you begin to show severe symptoms of COVID-19 – or what they call emergency warning signs – you should go to the emergency room or call 911 immediately.

Emergency warning signs of the coronavirus include:

Constant trouble breathing
Persistent chest pain or pressure
Confusion
Trouble staying awake
Blue lips or face

Interestingly enough he was reported to be lethargic and that he fell asleep on AF1 which was unusual for him.
