Donald Trump: Coronavirus super spreader? | DW News

US President Donald Trump is being treated at Walter Reed military hospital after testing positive for COVID-19. Trump has long been dismissive of the coronavirus, and of the precautions his own experts have recommended. How has he reacted to the greatest public health challenge in decades? Are his political rallies "super-spreader events?"

He shouldn't have been tested, then he wouldn't have it!

[christopherbland]

Just think if he didn't get Tested he wouldn't have it

[ShaunaAllen-qnlt]

Remember the 210, 000 who died lonely uncomfortable deaths, without the access to the best medical care and state-of-the-art new experimental treatment.
They were often the lower paid workers, keeping the country functioning during the crisis.

I hope the President gets better, loses the election, is indicted, tried and goes to prison as a disgraced criminal until he expires.

[neilnelson]

So, he only takes it seriously when the virus affects him directly, lol. How narcissistic can one get?

[mjrussell]

You and I both know he won’t learn from this...

[giovannidavinci]

Oh, come on Don, it's just a "small flu".

[donny]

Dont worry guys. Like he says, If they dont test theres no case. Trump is gonna be alright! Just dont test him again!! Its just a FLU!! 😂😂

[gamerwits]

Trump's lies and arrogance, will soon be his demise.

[StpnStn]

I’m not happy that he’s sick, but considering his dismissal of the virus, I’m not sorry for him, either

[roncaron]

IF WE STOPPED TEACHING KIDS TO READ
LIKE A MIRACLE
BOOKS
WOULD DISAPPEAR.

[presidentcamacho]

Let's hope Trump insists on intensive UV & bleach treatments

[BigLazyBear]

What happens when he survive this virus? He's gonna downplay it even more. God, there will be even more casualty.

[brucecameron]

I like presidents who don’t catch COVID and protect the people

[eyobmesfin]

LOL imagine little kids hearing about this guy in 50 years or so, in their history books.

[jeffwheaton]

This an example of dismissing science, belittling science, and not respecting the educational expertise available from the scientific community by a political party. And allowing an event to expose citizens is just beyond comprehension. Viruses are serious, and science, with knowledge gained daily, will empower us with the best tools of how to survive. This needs to be a bipartisan resistance to the virus, and all citizens contributing their share of efforts.

[abeljimenez]

This is what you get for not wearing a mask

[pacfic]

He’s likely going to recover and will be fine because he’s going to get the best and free care the US can offer, unlike hundreds of thousands of Americans who died, suffered through a long and difficult convalescence, or are financially ruined by the cost of treatment.

[trueconsumer]

Kellyanne Conway tested Covid+...this lets me believe there is God somewhere!

[afergie]

It’s October. trump said “it will probably go away in April with the heat”. How’s that working out for you, donnie?
