...The President kept going to political rallies and fund raisers when he knew he had cause to suspect that he had COVID-19. The aggressive treatment indicates that he waited too long because he had other priorities. Taking the ride past a cheering crowd (organized by a state Republican Party) may be one thing that he does to keep his spirits up.
The trouble is only beginning. Sure, he may lick the original infection, but it leaves plentiful consequences. Orange damage is a possibility. Blood clots form easily and can kill if they get to the heart or lungs. There is the possibility of diabetes that is never easy for an obese, elderly person.
No, Trump didn't hide it. People leaked details, and some of us thought that things were worse because the drugs used were for later-stage treatment. Trump is a nightmare as a patient, someone who tries to order physicians about. The news media watch every move of the President. One of the first jobs that one gets as a video journalist may be covering landings or take-offs of Air Force One or Marine One because any crash of either, however unlikely, is instant news. It is impossible to hide when the President leaves the White House. There's a working camera on the vehicle garage .
