Trump has been symptom-free for more than 24 hours, doctor says in new Covid memo
Source: CNBC
President Donald Trump has been symptom-free for more than 24 hours as he continues to be treated for the coronavirus at the White House, one of his doctors said Wednesday in a memo.
Trump has also been fever-free for more than 4 days and has not required supplemental oxygen since leaving Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Monday, Dr. Sean Conley said in the memo.
Of note today, the Presidents labs demonstrated detectable levels of SARS-CoV-2-IgG antibodies from labs drawn Monday, the White House physician added.
Conleys brief memo did not include any specific updates on the presidents drug regimen. Trump, since testing positive for the coronavirus last week, has taken numerous treatments, including the steroid dexamethasone, the antiviral therapy remdesivir and an antibody cocktail from Regeneron.

(4,069 posts)Those marvelous words to leave out.
It is just like the parent who pumps their kids full of tylenol or advil to keep the fever down to send them back to school.
Take him off those wonder drugs and analgesics and let's watch the result. Hopefully this charlatan will be in front of medical review board and an ethics board in the very near future.

(15,349 posts)Now you know why they refuse to say when "his last negative" test was. It could have been in July, for all we know, because it would have been the same as "his last test before the day he was admitted."

(2,022 posts)when he put out his tweet video today.
If he is looking like that on Friday I'll believe he beat it.
But there are many cases like his, where even someone of his age or with his conditions has an easy time of it. But of course all those cases don't make the news. He is not that special if he has a mild case.

(10,749 posts)You're lying.
And if you're not lying, then every rational American thinks you're lying.
And if he dies, as Herman Cain did, you're going to look pretty stupid. Inept. Immoral. Deceitful.
And if he doesn't die, well, then there's the possibility that he never had Covid (notwithstanding his apparent breathing problem, which might have been staged).
To repeat. No one believes a word - any word - coming out of the WH. That word can be "the" or "weather," and everyone will believe you're lying. About anything. About everything.
So just stop it.

(170,876 posts)From first hand experience with "lower" O2 levels (not COVID-related but pneumonia-related) - if you are sitting and reading or lying in bed watching TV or even moving from a bed or chair to a nearby kitchen or bathroom, then no, you do not need "supplemental oxygen". But if you want to walk say 50 - 100ft or try to do some stairs, then all bets are off.
The minute I started experiencing that, I knew something was wrong.
Stick a fork in him he's done!
