The coronavirus test came after Trump downplayed the severity of the outbreak, which has killed more than 207,000 people in the United States, for months, and just hours after he insisted that "the end of the pandemic is near." The president's personal physician said Trump was "healthy," without specifying whether he was showing symptoms of the disease, and added that Donald and Melania would remain isolated in the White House for now.

“The President and First Lady are doing well at this time and are planning to stay in the White House until they fully recover,” said physician Sean P. Conley in a statement, without specifying how long it will last. "The President will continue to carry out his duties without interruption during the recovery, and I will keep you informed of all developments." Other Trump aides also did not say if he had symptoms, but those close to the president at the White House noticed that his voice sounded hoarse on Thursday. However, this may be due to the large number of events that the president has held recently - including the pre-election debate with Joe Biden.
