For The Archives: ToA+18 Hours -- October 3, 2020

Updates

Later: 8:28 p.m. CT. President Trump on television for a 4-minute speech to the American people (and the entire world for that matter). 

Looks like he beat coronavirus in less than 24 hours. Not out of the woods yet, but certainly looks good. If he survives, and is back at the WH sometime next week, I look at this moment as the "Dukakis" moment -- mask-wearing Hidin' Biden vs an American leader who attacked problems, even at great risk to himself, head on. Free choice.

By the way, the stadiums are full of fans watching college football today.

And now, the game is interrupted by a TD Ameritrade commercial with folks in an airport -- and no masks.

Original Post

 Time of admission plus eighteen hours, from social media:


Physician's report: around noon. President Trump's physicians provide update; says things are going well. Trump himself tweets he's doing great. Rumors that he said he was ready to be discharged. Received IV plasma and Remdesivir.  Can you say "Gilead"? Apparently Trump was generous enough to let scarce ventilators be reserved for others.

Best thing about twitter: I can "see" news without it being filtered by mainstream media.  

Social media comments are great. 

Generally speaking, once one begins to recover from a malady, the recovery continues. Only rarely does one begin to recover and then relapse during the same admission.

If similar report tomorrow, prepare yourself for a great Monday!
