According to early reports on Friday, the president was experiencing mild COVID-19 symptoms which included trouble breathing and a fever.
Since then, Trump has checked into Walter Reed hospital for further treatment. The White House said Trump’s admittance is a “precautionary measure.” The White House statement also noted “President Trump remains in good spirts, has mild symptoms, and has been working throughout the day,” and “Out of an abundance of caution … the President will be working from the presidential offices at Walter Reed for the next few days.”
Jim Acosta just now on CNN: "I talked to a Trump campaign advisor a short while ago that said this is serious. That the president has been having some trouble breathing, that he's been very fatigued today, very tired." pic.twitter.com/PciehG4IUg
