Trump Begins Remdesivir Therapy While Spending The Night In The Hospital
(CNN) -- President Donald Trump will be taken to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, according to the White House.
Trump has had a fever since Friday morning, a person familiar with the matter said, though the fever remains consistent with the White House's description of "mild symptoms."
Earlier in the afternoon, Trump's physician wrote in a memo he "remains fatigued but in good spirits."
"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," Navy Commander Dr. Sean Conley wrote.
He said Trump had been administered a Regeneron polyclonal antibody cocktail and has been taking zinc, vitamin D, famotidine, melatonin and a daily aspirin.
The memo also said first lady Melania Trump remains well with only a mild cough and headache, and the remainder of the first family is well and have tested negative.
The President disclosed in the early morning hours on Friday that he and the first lady had tested positive for coronavirus.
People who spoke to him on Friday morning described him in high spirits, and said he was inquiring about business of the day.
