President Donald Trump is not yet on a clear path to recovery from Coronavirus and some of his vital signs over the last 24 hours were very concerning, a person familiar with his health said on Saturday.
The source’s assessment of the Republican president’s medical status seemed to be at odds to that of a team of doctors who said at a press conference earlier on Saturday that he was “doing very well.”
One of those doctors said Trump had told them “‘I feel like I could walk out of here today.’”
The source, who asked not to be identified, said the next 48 hours will be critical in terms of Trump’s care.
Trump left the White House and was moved to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center near Washington on Friday just hours after he was diagnosed with COVID-19.
White House doctor Sean P. Conley told reporters outside the hospital on Saturday that Trump had not experienced difficulty breathing, and currently was not on supplemental oxygen.
“The team and I are extremely happy with the progress the president has made,” Conley said.
Conley would not provide a timetable for Trump’s possible release from the hospital.
The White House has said Trump, 74, will work in a special suite at the hospital for the next few days as a precautionary measure. He had no public events scheduled on Saturday.
