Trump flown to hospital after positive COVID-19 test

October 3, 2020

A feverish US President Donald Trump has been flown to hospital after testing positive for Coronavirus.

His doctor said Mr. Trump was "fatigued but in good spirits" and in a later update, that he was doing well.

Mr. Trump has so far been treated with an experimental drug cocktail injection and the antiviral medication Remdesivir after both he and First Lady Melania Trump tested positive for COVID-19.

In exactly one month, Mr. Trump faces Joe Biden in the presidential election.

The latest update from Mr. Trump's physician, Sean Conley, in a memorandum late on Friday, read: "I am happy to report the president is doing very well." He said the president was not in need of supplemental oxygen.
