Trump makes first public appearance as he is “no longer” a transmission risk
U.S. President Donald Trump, who tested positive for COVID-19 on Oct. 1, is “no longer considered a transmission risk to others,” his doctor said on Saturday as the president prepared to resume campaign rallies.
In a new memo on the president’s status, White House physician Sean Conley wrote that he made the assessment following a COVID PCR sample this morning by “currently recognized standards,” but did not disclose when Trump last had a negative test result.
“Now at day 10 from symptom onset, fever-free for well over 24 hours and all symptoms improved, the assortment of advanced diagnostic tests obtained revealed there is no longer evidence of actively replicating virus,” Conley said of the president, promising to continue to monitor the president clinically “as he returns to an active schedule.”
The 74-year-old tested positive for the virus on Oct. 1 and was later hospitalized for three days before returning to the White House with continued treatment.
In the wake of Trump’s infection, a number of White House staff have also confirmed positive for the virus.
Top U.S. expert Anthony Fauci on Friday identified a White House ceremony unveiling president’s Supreme Court nominee on Sept. 26, as “a super-spreader event” for COVID-19.
After completing a therapy and being medically cleared by Conley, Trump made his first public appearance since infection at the White House on Saturday afternoon by addressing hundreds of supporters from the Truman Balcony.
“I’m feeling great,” the president said, while declaring COVID-19 is “disappearing” in the Untied States despite that dozens of states are reporting rising numbers of cases.
Over the past week, there have been an average of 47,782 cases per day in the United States, an increase of 12 percent from the average two weeks ago, according to a tally by The New York Times.
The virus has infected more than 7.7 million people and killed 214,370 in the country, showed a dashboard run by Johns Hopkins University.
Trump will hit the presidential campaign trail on Monday with a rally in Sanford, Florida.

Hopefully, few more weeks and the world will be free of this clown. At least politically. One evil politician less.
This “infamous” 45th President of the United States of America – is a RISK.
In fact, it’s a soft word to use to describe, the individual Donald. J. Trump.
If he is re-elected he RISKS on-going major components of mankind.
Donald. J. Trump – current President of the United States of America, a population of 351 million human beings, has created, under his Presidency, a Humanitarian Disaster.
America is a Shambles.
America – it is Hoped – they wake up and Accept, the Wrongness and Error, they made – their BLUNDER, in 2016, not just for their Future, but for the Global World.
Stay Safe & Well – ALL.
This buffoon is responsible, in part, for 214.573 deaths in the USA. People would have gotten sick , or course, but his ineptitude, ego and desire to divide the American people for his own gain is directly responsible for the deaths of many. Given the fact that he has logged over 25,000 lies to the public, it’s easy to believe he faked his own illness to gain sympathy and love from his own snowflakes. If there is justice (doubtful), he will be tried for his treasonous behavior.
And why would you use the Chinese Communist Party newspaper as a source for news? Surely, there are are many other sources out there that aren’t connected to a genocidal maniac.
In 1946, trials commenced against individuals, who amongst other acts of crime that they had to answer, given by their authority and “hands on” involvement that they of knowledge gave authority and where part of that centered on Crimes Against Humanity.
There is a strong resemblance of similarity, in what is occurring on-going in America, being “signed off” by the President of the United States of America – the “infamous” Donald. J. Trump, to the major reasons, that surrounded, the conducting of the Nuremberg Trials.
I write in this tone of annoyance but more likened to revulsion and
detestation, in the people of America, who continue to allow, what we, in the wider world are witnessing, that being, the Humanitarian Disaster, that is America to-day.
Trump – if victorious again in November 2020, for a second term in office, or he is voted out, unequivocally, he will find himself, tried for his pivotal role, in the loss of life that has seen near 220.000 lives lost, and near on 8 million current cases of this novel coronavirus, which has not near finished it’s absolute destructional paths, as it weaves it-self throughout America.
Trump – will be made to answer for his crimes against humanity, and that is gathering rapid momentum as I write.
What total piffle dear readers. Trump is just one of the world leaders who have contracted a disease that has reached a pandemic level. Those that have did not become infected hiding behind the pillars of the ivory towers they occupy. Key word is “leader” of nations. They were not elected, nor do they get paid to hide from the troubles of the world. Congressional leaders hide, cry and blame while populaces must continue to be exposed so they can work their crappy little jobs in order to eat. Those who do not have crappy jobs of any kind are left dependent upon charity while the politicians and the wealthy make darn sure they themselves are protected. This piece of drivel article also ignores that half of the US population still goes out to drink, dine, walk in the parks, etc; regardless of the risks to themselves or others. As for Trump, he gets paid to take risks, to face the problems of the nation as they are, not as the wonderland people want to believe exists. You have to go to Hollywood for such nonsense.
