Coronavirus: Trump reports 'no symptoms' despite breathing heavily at photo op

Donald Trump “continues to do extremely well” and reported “no symptoms” on Tuesday, his physician said in an internal White House memo shared with the press.

That report comes despite the president appearing breathless less than 24 hours earlier as he posed for photographs on his return to the White House on Monday after spending three nights at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

“This morning the President’s team of physicians met with him in the Residence,” Sean Conley, the president’s personal physician from the US Navy, wrote in the memo.

“He had a restful first night at home, and today he reports no symptoms. Vital signs and physical exam remain stable, with an ambulatory oxygen saturation level of 95-97%. Overall he continues to do extremely well. I will provide updates as we know more,” Dr Conley wrote.
