Late last night, it was announced that President Donald Trump and his wife Melania had tested positive for coronavirus. Now, the White House physician is speaking out to give an update on how they are doing, and to reveal their treatment plan.
White House Physician Gives Update
“As of this afternoon, the President remains fatigued but in good spirits,” Dr. Sean Conley said in a statement released through the White House press secretary’s office on Friday.
“He’s being evaluated by a team of experts, and together we’ll be making recommendations to the President and First Lady in regards to next best steps,” he added.
Conley went on to lay out the treatment that Trump is receiving for the coronavirus.
“Following PCR-confirmation of the president’s diagnosis, as a precautionary measure he received a single 8 gram dose of Regenerons’s polyclonal antibody cocktail. He completed the infusion without incident,” wrote Conley.
“In addition to the polyclonal antibodies, the President has been taking zinc, Vitamin D, famotidine, melatonin and a daily aspirin,” he added.
