Former WH Doctor Defends Their Safety Protocols

Politico reports:

Ronny Jackson, the former physician to the president, defended Friday the White House’s coronavirus safety protocols in the wake of President Donald Trump testing positive for Covid-19.

“I believe they do everything they can to keep him safe, certainly at the White House,” Jackson, a retired Navy rear admiral who served as the personal doctor for Trump and former President Barack Obama, told “Fox & Friends” in an interview.

“I continue to go up there pretty frequently. The testing at the White House is aggressive,” Jackson said. “And that’s part of the reason that this gets picked up so quickly. And I suspect that this got picked up very quickly in the course of this illness for the president.

1/2: Our President and First Lady have tested positive for COVID-19, however, rest assured they are both fine and completely asymptotic. The President is in very good health and has NO comorbities.

2/2: Well over 99% of healthy individuals in the President’s age group recover completely and most never even become symptomatic. I fully expect this to be the case with President Trump as well.
