The president noted that at the hospital he was taking a drug called "Regeneron," which has not yet been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
"It's an amazing drug and I'm working to make it available to everyone," Trump said in the video, "so everyone can get treatment like the president. You'll get it for free because you are not to blame for what happened. China is to blame - and it will pay a heavy price. ".
Trump added and praised "Regeneron": "This drug is great. It was my idea to give it to me. The doctors and scientists are great, they have done amazing things and there are treatments and drugs today that could not be dreamed of."
The president later told Americans: "Do not be afraid of the corona, it was a blessing in disguise that I was infected. No president like me has pushed the pharmaceutical industry to develop and the FDA to quickly approve new drugs and vaccines. Things that once took years to confirm are approved within weeks."
He added that "there will be a vaccine very soon. It was supposed to be before the election but the Democrats are playing politics. Not bad. There will be a vaccine immediately after the election."
