Trump's Doctor Says President Tests Negative for COVID-19

VOA News

   U.S. President Donald Trump's doctor says the president has tested
   negative for COVID-19 on "consecutive days" as Trump traveled to
   Florida for his first campaign rally since being diagnosed with the
   disease earlier this month.

   In a memo released Monday by the White House, Dr. Sean Conley said
   Trump was tested using a newer rapid coronavirus test from Abbott
   Laboratories. He did not say when Trump was tested.

   Conley said the negative tests, along with other clinical and
   laboratory data, "indicate a lack of detectable viral replication." He
   also repeated an assessment that he gave over the weekend that Trump is
   no longer infectious to others.

   Trump returned to the campaign trail Monday for a busy week that
   includes stops in Florida, Pennsylvania, Iowa, North Carolina and
   Wisconsin, his first campaign travel since his positive test for
   COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, on Oct 2. Trump spent
   several days at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and
   completed his COVID-19 treatment at the White House.
