White House: "Trump Likely to Be Discharged on the 5th... COVID-19 Improving"

Donald Trump, the President of the United States, who tested positive for the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), is giving a thumbs-up to reporters on the 2nd (local time) at the White House in Washington DC before being transferred to Walter Reed Military Hospital.

Donald Trump, the President of the United States, who is being treated in the hospital after being infected with the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), is likely to be discharged on the 5th (Eastern Time, US), White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows announced on the same day.

According to major foreign media outlets such as Fox News, Chief of Staff Meadows said, "President Trump's health has steadily improved over the past night. I also spoke directly with the President," adding that medical staff are scheduled to review the President's health condition on the morning of the day.

Meanwhile, on the 4th, while still hospitalized, President Trump sparked controversy by making a surprise outing to greet supporters outside the hospital.

This 'surprise show,' which was not necessary, put the security personnel and support staff who accompanied him in the sport utility vehicle (SUV) at risk.

With less than a month remaining until the presidential election, this is seen as reflecting President Trump's anxiety to emphasize the image of a 'strong warrior' who has fought and overcome illness.

Insiders said that President Trump was bored in the hospital and, unlike the medical staff, his Chief of Staff gave a bleak assessment of his health, indicating that he wanted to show a strong image.
