Ahead of an election rally in Florida, the US president is determined to show that he is healthy and strong • He did not miss an opportunity to attack Biden: "Trying to steal the election"
Just over a week since being diagnosed with corona, US President Donald Trump has returned to full activity - and today (Monday) he is even expected to hold an election rally in Florida.
"I have received a full and comprehensive discharge from my doctors," he boasted in a tweet.
"It means I can not be infected (vaccinated) and I can not be infected. Very nice to know !!!".

Shortly before the "festive" tweet, Trump gave a phone interview to Fox News, during which he insisted that "I seem to be vaccinated, I can get out of the basement," he declared.
"I would do it anyway, because I have to run a country. I seem to be vaccinated maybe for a long time, maybe for a while, maybe forever - no one really knows. But the president is in a very good position to fight battles. I defeated the terrible virus from China. "The highest test, the highest standards, and I'm in great shape. I have to say I feel great, really good."
As usual, the US president did not miss an opportunity to attack his rival, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, claiming that Democrats "are trying to steal the election. The good news is that law enforcement is watching very closely," he added.
After a comprehensive discussion on his health, the president tried to draw attention to the health of his 77-year-old rival.
"He coughed terribly yesterday," Trump said.
"It didn't get coverage, because the media doesn't cover it. But it's worth checking it out."
For the first time since being diagnosed, the president is expected to leave Washington today for Florida - a key state swinging in the upcoming election - for an election rally.
However, this will not be the first time he has held an election rally since he was diagnosed, as he already had such an event at the White House last night.
The president came out to his supporters a few hours after his personal physician, Dr. Sean Conley, issued an official statement stating that Trump “is no longer considered a danger to others.
I am pleased to report that the President meets the criteria for discontinuation of isolation, "Conley said." 10 days after the onset of symptoms, he has been without fever for well over 24 hours and all symptoms have improved. " Conley did not specify whether the president had undergone a coronation test that returned negatively.

What is clear to everyone is that it is very important for the president to show the American public that he is healthy and strong, and to demonstrate this in public.
The New York Times reported on Tuesday that ahead of his release from the hospital last week, the president shared with his advisers an unusual idea: Upon leaving the hospital, he will wear a T-shirt under his button-down shirt with the Superman logo printed on it.
At first he will look weak, but then he will rip off his shirt - and reveal the symbol of the superhero.
Finally, of course, the "exercise" did not materialize.
And while the president brags about his health, his rival Biden warned on Tuesday of an attempt by Trump to skew the election results.
"The only way we're losing out is by ballot, 'the Democratic candidate said during a visit to Pennsylvania.
The former vice president later made it clear that he would "get the election results, period."
Meanwhile, Biden seems optimistic: Another poll, this time by the Washington Post and ABC, showed that the Democratic candidate's advantage remained stable and even growing.
The poll, which is considered particularly high-quality, gave him 54% support compared to only 42% for the president.
In the previous survey of the two bodies, Biden's advantage was 10%.
