Trump’s Treatment Suggests Severe Covid-19, Medical Experts Say

President Trump’s doctors offered rosy assessments of his condition on Sunday, but the few medical details they disclosed — including his fluctuating oxygen levels and a decision to begin treatment with a steroid drug — suggested to many infectious disease experts that he is suffering a more severe case of Covid-19 than the physicians acknowledged.

Are you going to stick to this "grim" narrative if he walks out tomorrow?

why not? His treatment was for a very serious case. Did it work? Who knows? With Trump controlling the messaging, we will not know the truth until after the election. He is a bit short on honesty. You seem to like that.

Trump rarely has health problems but when he does he demands the very best of everything that the medical men have to offer.....that is the story.....the story that most of the Mind Molders either pretend is not the story, or they are too dim to understand the story.

The President has a full time medical staff. This is news to you?!
 
The steroid he got was used for very severe cases. The experimental medicine they gave him was not even approved. If those things were actually used, then he had a severe case.

Time will tell. If he's back on the job this week then it wasn't a severe case.

Trump was administered dexamethasone, which apparently is only used to treat the most severe cases of COVID-19. Studies have shown the drug to have no benefit for milder cases and it even comes with health risks. Also, so much is still unknown about how all these drugs they're giving him interact.

Dexamethasone has been approved since 1961.

Anyone who wants some reality on this drug rather than the spin from the Trump Haters should look at the link.....I think Trump made a good call.

Cool story. But COVID-19 didn't exist in 1961. Also, I'd sooner trust a medical professional than you.

Oh, and Trumpworld claimed that Trump will be released Monday. Let's see how that pans out.

The medical professionals have done a terrible job during this pandemic, it is not at all shocking that they might tell Trump what the current wisdom is on treating COVID when he has it and Trump comes back with " What about this, this seems like a better idea, why is this not a better idea?" and he gets no good answer. He then orders his treatment, which is his right.
