The nation received a serious scare last week when President Trump was transported to the Walter Reed Military Medical Center to undergo treatment for coronavirus over the weekend. Trump reportedly exhibited only mild symptoms and recovered relatively quickly.
Trump to return to White House from Walter Reed Medical Center
So quickly in fact that Chief of Staff Mark Meadows told reporters that Trump could be discharged as early as Monday afternoon from Walter Reed to return to the White House.
“Spoke to the president this morning,” Meadows said. “He continued to improve overnight and is ready to get back to a normal working schedule.”
On Monday, President Trump confirmed that he would indeed be leaving Walter Reed to return to work in the Oval Office.
I will be leaving the great Walter Reed Medical Center today at 6:30 P.M. Feeling really good! Don’t be afraid of Covid. Don’t let it dominate your life. We have developed, under the Trump Administration, some really great drugs & knowledge. I feel better than I did 20 years ago!
