The White House doctor announced on Saturday that the American president is not infected with the new corona, revealing the result of the medical examination that Donald Trump underwent after being in direct contact with a number of members of a Brazilian delegation who later turned out to be infected with the virus.
"This evening, I received confirmation that the (Corona virus) test was negative," said Dr. Sean Conley. "A week after having dinner in Maralago (in Florida) with the Brazilian delegation, the president does not show any symptoms," he added.
After rejecting, over the course of days, the examination of the new corona virus, an epidemic that cripples the world and could affect millions of Americans, the American President announced earlier Saturday that he had been tested and awaited the results.
"I was examined yesterday evening," the president said during a press conference at the White House, after he considered Friday that it was not necessary because he had no symptoms.
On Friday, Trump was seen shaking hands with a number of people at a meeting of the Corona virus team in the United States, contrary to medical recommendations that the handshake should be avoided.
And Saturday, Trump said shaking hands was an old habit, but he recognized the need to refrain from it.
On Saturday, the White House announced that it would examine the heat of "all those in close contact" with Trump and his deputy, Mike Pence, in a "precautionary measure" against the emerging Corona virus.
Bensaf, the designated coordinator for the epidemic control in the United States, said he had not been examined, but would be "pleased" to do so if necessary.
And all over the world, political officials or their wives are getting hurt.
The Trump administration has been criticized for the slow pace of the detection of Covid-19s at the disposal of the American people, and for the small number of available stocks.
