Covid-19: Fear Grows As Trump Fails To Tweet, Releases Video Statement

President Trump has failed to tweet over his recovery progress ,but has released a video statement.

CityNews Nigeria reports that the united States President, Donald trump has refused to send twitter messages over his recovery progress but in stead has released a video statement prompting serious concerns from all over the world.

Trump released the following video from the presidential suite at the Walter Reed Hospital where he’s currently being treated for Covid-19.

This is the first time President Trump has stayed away from tweeting since he became popular on Twitter.

“I came here, wasn’t feeling so well. I feel much better now,” Trump said from his business suite at the Walter Reed military medical centre near Washington.

“We’re working hard to get me all the way back… I think I’ll be back soon and I look forward to finishing up the campaign the way it was started.”

Appearing relaxed in an open-collar shirt and blue suit jacket, Trump acknowledged that there was uncertainty about the course of the disease, which can hit recovering patients hard with no warning.

“I’m starting to feel good. You don’t know over the next period of a few days, I guess that’s the real test, so we’ll be seeing what happens over those next couple of days.”

Late Saturday, White House doctor Sean Conley said Trump was “not yet out of the woods,” but that the medical team is “cautiously optimistic.”

White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows said Trump’s condition had them worried on Friday, but that he had since improved.

“Yesterday morning, we were real concerned… he had a fever and his blood oxygen level had dropped rapidly,” Meadows told Fox News late Saturday.

Meadows said there was never a risk Trump would have to hand over power, after a day of conflicting reports and confusion over the leader’s actual fitness.

“He’s made unbelievable improvements from yesterday morning, when I know a number of us, the doctor and I, were very concerned,” Meadows said.

His comments echoed remarks by Conley, who said Trump had “made substantial progress since diagnosis, and remained “fever-free and off supplemental oxygen.”

Trump, 74, had completed a second dose of therapeutic drug remdesivir and had spent “most of the afternoon conducting business,” Conley added.

A second doctor, Sean Dooley, said earlier in the day that the president’s cardiac, kidney and liver functions were “normal.”

Conley was evasive when asked earlier whether the president had received supplementary oxygen at any point since falling ill, only confirming that he hadn’t received any at the hospital or on Thursday — the day of his positive test.

Several US media outlets said Trump was on oxygen at the White House on Friday before being admitted to Walter Reed.
