White House chief of staff Mark Meadows on Saturday night revealed that President Trump’s blood oxygen level “dropped rapidly” prior to his hospitalization at Walter Reed the day before.
If meadows is telling the truth – a big if – that could be important news. That would be after the initial infusions of antibodies, and not necessarily a good sign for trump’s lungs. The current “happy” with trump’s levels might mean they’re actually good, or it might just mean they haven’t cratered.
(And it’s part of the natural history of Covid-19 infection that people appear better with low sats than they would with many other diseases.)
This is a sign of lung involvement. As every parent knows, fever can be controlled. If Covid is affecting your breathing, you have to worry about viral load.
They probably forced him to take a Covid test on Friday, then suddenly his oxygen levels drop. This guy was a walking viral case way before it was confirmed that he had the virus.
Continuing to add to the death toll by his negligence for months and now he’s contributing on a personal level.
He’s going down in shame no matter how this ends.
I’m sure he’s telling the truth here because he’s too stupid and uninformed to know the implications you are referring to.
However, I’m certain with the level of care he’s receiving, he’ll pull through just fine. I hope it infuriates every American that the person who has caused tens of thousands of needless deaths gets the best care - that we pay for. I just can’t get past that …
Don’t believe a word this asshole says. He has a long history of building false narratives.
It’s likely that Trump’s O2 levels were down, but let’s hear that on the record from the doctors treating him. Everything you hear from Meadows is aimed at framing how Trump is “beating the virus” with his God-like genes.
In case you were wondering whether the president’s hospitalization would result in the Quonspiracists re-examining their beliefs, sorry to disappoint you.
