You know the conspiracy theories are going to start popping up

who are they going to blame for infecting Trump a month before the election? Bill and Hillary, George Soros, Bill Gates? All of them in a diabolical plot?

So this spreading event occurred 6 days ago

Is it possible we start seeing even more people in the White House becoming positive in the next few days who may have just picked it up in the last day or two?


Editing to include this:

There’s an incubation period for COVID-19. If you test too soon after exposure, it can result in a false negative. In one study on false negative rates after COVID-19 exposure, researchers found that in the four days prior to symptom onset, the probability of a false negative was extremely high on day one. The probability of a false negative on day four was around 67%.

So we may be seeing just the beginning of a HUGE spreading event started Saturday and moved all through the WH the past few days!

Here's What We Know About The Antibody Treatment Trump Is Getting For COVID-19

AFP3 OCTOBER 2020
US President Donald Trump will spend the coming days in a military hospital just outside Washington to undergo treatment for COVID-19 after he received an experimental and unproven treatment, White House officials said Friday.

The announcements raised concern about the severity of the president's illness, after his chief of staff had earlier told reporters that Trump had only mild symptoms.

"At the recommendation of his physician and medical experts, the president will be working from the presidential offices at Walter Reed for the next few days," press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said.

While still at the White House, Trump, 74, received a single dose of Regeneron's antibody cocktail, according to a letter issued by White House physician Sean Conley.

The treatment is undergoing clinical trials but hasn't yet received any form of regulatory approval.

"He's being evaluated by a team of experts, and together we'll be making recommendations to the president and first lady in regards to next best steps," Conley said.

Trump - who has repeatedly cast doubt on the seriousness of the pandemic - first announced in an overnight tweet that he and First Lady Melania Trump, 50, had tested positive and were going into quarantine.

If he gets moved to intensive care then the mortality rate jumps to around 40%

The fact he has symptoms and they are serious enough to have him go to the hospital means his chances of death are no longer only 4% as many people who get it are asymptomatic or only have mild symptoms. So his chances of mortality at this point maybe more like 10% though he probably has about the best possible care in the country which bods well for him.

Here is what they are giving Trump



Pres. Trump has been treated with an experimental ‘antibody cocktail’ to combat his COVID-19 symptoms. The president is currently suffering from a low-grade fever as the White House has said that he is ‘fatigued but in good spirits.’ White House physician Dr. Sean Conley said in a memo that Trump received an injection of 8 grams of an antibody drug produced by the pharmaceutical company Regeneron. ‘In addition to the polyclonal antibodies, the President has been taking zinc, vitamin D, famotidine, melatonin and a daily aspirin,’ Dr. Conley wrote. This is the first medical update on Trump’s condition since the news broke early this morning that he and the first lady had tested positive. Regeneron's antibody drug is an experimental treatment and remains in clinical trials.

It feels like the Trump campaign is in total disarray right now on an epic level

1. Trump's Taxes - Total mess!

2. Debate performance - Terrible!

3. Telling Proud boys to "Stand by" - More bad press.

4. Polling - Sinking

5. Getting Covid19 along with many around him - more chaos, bad press, irresponsibility


He has a month to turn things around. Not looking good especially with more NYT's articles coming on his taxes and I bet they will expose criminal activity as it looks pretty obvious.
