Criticism of photos from the hospital
10:00 a.m.:
The White House published photos of Donald Trump on Saturday evening (American local time).
They should show how Trump also goes about his work from the hospital.
In one of the photos he is sitting at a large wooden table in a white shirt and reading his documents.
In another picture he is wearing a suit and is putting his signature on a piece of paper.
The pictures sparked discussions on social networks.
Among other things, because the image files show that the images were taken at an interval of just ten minutes, as journalist Jon Ostrower tweeted.
This suggests that the recordings are merely productions that are intended to prove that Trump is still able to work.
There are contradicting statements about Trump's actual health.
His personal physician Sean Conley announced on Saturday in front of the Walter Reed Military Hospital in Bethesda that the President was doing very well.
Conley did not want to reveal some details and ended the press conference after a few minutes.
Shortly thereafter, however, the news outlets AP and Reuters reported doubts about Trump's actual health.
Reuters wrote that a person familiar with the situation said Trump's condition had recently been worrying.
The next 48 hours could be critical for Trump's treatment.
AP reported, citing an insider, that some of Trump's values had been "very worrying" over the past 24 hours.
However, his condition has improved since he was in hospital.
Media report: Trump hesitated before hospitalization
9.45 a.m.:
According to information from the broadcaster CNN, US President Donald Trump initially hesitated on Friday to be treated in the hospital for his corona infection.
Citing informed circles, the station reported on Sunday night that Trump's advisors first had to convince the 74-year-old in the White House to get on board the Marine One helicopter.
The helicopter had already been waiting on the south lawn of the official headquarters.
Trump was ultimately flown to the Walter Reed Military Hospital north of Washington, where he has been treated ever since.
Despite symptoms and therapy that has already started, Trump initially did not want to be taken to hospital, it said.
He wanted to avoid appearing seriously ill.
The president had been told that it would be better for him to stay in the clinic if his condition worsened.
High-ranking government officials said they would not have Trump hospitalized until after the stock market closed in order to avoid a crash in stock prices.
Trump's assistant Nicholas Luna Corona positive
9:00 a.m .:
Another White House member tested positive for Corona - Nicholas Luna, one of the President's personal assistants.
Luna works as a so-called "body man" for Trmp.
As such, it is his job to accompany the President and, for example, to keep documents ready.
So he stayed close to Trump and accompanied him to Cleveland, for example.
Luna's wife also works in the White House.
Your test result was negative.
