What happened to the story that Trump was diagosed with Covid on Wed.???

I herd this several times on television and then net away for several hours and no one is saying anything about it.

Was it disproven? (even though based on the doctors timeline of 72 hour ago)

It's still up at DU: https://www.democraticunderground.com/100214198856

Thia should be the biggest story of the year, showing Trumps so irresponsible that he would knowingly endanger other by ignoring his Covid diagnosis and symptoms for political purposes!

(24 hours) Day 1 = Thursday (the diagnosis was before midnight)
(48 hours) Day 2 = Friday (disclosure to the public shortly after 1 AM, expermiental treatment, movement to Walter Reed & oxygen treatment at some point)
(72 hours) Day 3 = today

His utter lack of responsibility in engaging in any campaign/public events after his first clinical symptom (Wednesday night - falling asleep from fatigue on the way home from the MN rally) should still be the biggest story of the year. But don't make a misstatement into something it's not.

and then get this sick already. He's had it for a while. The original story just doesn't make sense medically.
