The president was flown out to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and given an experimental antibody treatment on Friday, Oct. 2, after aides, noticed that President Trump experienced “mild-symptoms” such as coughing, congestion, and fever.

White House officials said the President’s hospital stay is a precautionary measure and he will be hospitalized for several days.

This comes after President Donald Trump confirmed he and First Lady, Melania Trump, had covid-19 as of Thursday via a tweet that stated

“Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!”
