"I want to thank everyone for the tremendous support, I'm going to Walter Reed Hospital. I think I'm doing very well," Trump said Friday evening in a video message on Twitter. "But we're going to make sure that things work out. The First Lady is doing very well. Thank you very much, I appreciate it, I will never forget it."

From Newsweek:

A White House doctor on Friday said that President Donald Trump is still fatigued after taking an experimental antibody cocktail for his COVID-19 infection.

The president has displayed mild symptoms of the disease after announcing he tested positive in the early hours of Friday morning. First lady Melania Trump also tested positive. Donald Trump will spend the next few days in Walter Reed Military Hospital, according to the White House, while Melania Trump is in quarantine at the White House.

In a health update, Trump's physician, Sean Conley, confirmed that Trump received a single 8 gram dose of Regeneron's polyclonal antibody cocktail. Additionally, the president has also been taking zinc, vitamin D, famotidine, melatonin and a daily aspirin.

"As of this afternoon the President remains fatigued but in good spirits," Conley said. "He's being evaluated by a team of experts, and together we'll be making recommendations to the President and First Lady in regards to next best steps."

The physician said Melania Trump "remains well" and has displayed "only a mild cough and headache." The rest of Trump's family tested negative for the coronavirus today.

His odds of survival should be extremely high under normal circumstances but I fear the enemies of the Republic may see this an an opportunity to slip him something.

I hope he knows all the doctors involved and they know the drugs they're giving him have not been tampered with.

Regardless, it's definitely a good thing that he's going straight to the hospital for treatment rather than waiting around for symptoms to become worse.

The consensus seems to be that treating the infection as quickly as possible is best for survivability.
