WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump will return to the White House on Monday three days after he arrived at Walter Reed hospital with coronavirus symptoms that were alarming enough that doctors administered oxygen and several rounds of treatment.
"I will be leaving the great Walter Reed Medical Center today at 6:30 P.M.," Trump posted on Twitter. "Feeling really good!"
Trump, who has received around-the-clock care at Walter Reed Medical Center and several rounds of treatment, advised his followers to not "be afraid of Covid. Don’t let it dominate your life. We have developed, under the Trump Administration, some really great drugs & knowledge."
Trump asserted that he felt better than he did "20 years ago!"
Trump's doctors said the president was given the steroid dexamethasone on Saturday following an oxygen drop. The World Health Organization recommends that drug only for "several and critical" cases. Trump received a single 8-gram dose of Regeneron's polyclonal antibody cocktail on Friday as a precautionary measure.
He also has received several rounds of Remdesivir therapy and has taken zinc, vitamin D, famotidine, melatonin and a daily aspirin, doctors said.
"Though he may not entirely be out of the woods yet, the team and I agree that all our evaluations, and most importantly his clinical status, support the resident's safe return home," White House physician Sean Conley said in a briefing Monday.
"Over the past 24 hours, the president has continued to improve," he said. "He's met or exceeded all standard hospital discharge criteria."
Trump's medical team suggested the possibility Sunday that he could be released from Walter Reed Medical Center if his condition continued to improve and White House aides – and the president himself – have asserted he is eager to return home, even as a growing number of West Wing officials announce they have positive test results.
The news came as the White House faced a growing number of questions about inconsistent and incomplete information provided about Trump's condition, not to mention a burgeoning number of aides who have tested positive. Top among those was White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany, who tested positive Monday.
Two other aides in the White House press office also tested positive. Many of those aides attended events at the White House Saturday tied to Trump's nomination of Judge Amy Comey Barrett to a vacancy on the Supreme Court.
On Sunday, White House physician Sean Conley acknowledged the president had been given oxygen and explained the decision to not disclose that information earlier by saying he "didn’t want to give any information that might steer the course of illness in another direction and in doing so came off that we were trying to hide something, which wasn’t necessarily true."
Conley declined to answer a key question Monday that would help assess the potential spread of the disease within the White House that officials have declined to answer for days: When did the president receive his last ‘negative’ test result for coronavirus.
“I don’t want to go backwards,” Conley said.
Asked about the president's re-election campaign, Conley said, "As far as travel goes, we'll see."

I can't even feel sorry for you Jim... your hate and lack of decency are too extreme.
He also claims that under his administration "they have developed some really great drugs and knowledge".
Once again. your projection actually defines you.
Jim it's good to see a smart CS poster who puts his country ahead of that corrupt and depraved pathetic excuse for a President.
Lots of news today about Trumps joyride around Walter Reed spreading his COVID. A normal patient allowed to do that would get his doctor fired on the spot! Also about documented negligence in the West Wing due to Trump's threats to his people. Trump is turning his little West Wing swamp into a hot spot for D.C. on the COVID MAP!
Instead, it's about what gets Trump's jollies off.
Getting the cheers from his minority of supporters apparently is more important to him and the dopes,
who support him, while he helps spread the virus like Donald VirusSeed at those rallies.
But seriously -
Depending upon when he was infected, he could be past being contagious.
Also ... The White House is a big place - Docs can quarantine him from WH Staff.
Depending upon when he was infected, he could be past being contagious.
It's believed that a fundraiser in NJ is where the White House outbreak originated.
If so, he's likely still contagous.
I believe with every fibre withing me that Pence is positive..
I reckon the Docs tasked with tending POTUS are more on it than we making guesses.
Trump has told advisor with positive test not to tell anyone.
until he got it confirmed with a second test.
The Staff would practice isolation techniques as done in hospitals.
Do you think some people visiting the White House might be influenced by him ?
