Donald Trump To Undergo COVID-19 Test Everyday; Know Why
Washington: After a close military aide of his tested positive for COVID-19 recently, US president Donald Trump has decided to undergo the corona test everyday to be on the safer side.
While addressing media at the Oval Office of the White House, Trump said that he had very little contact with the military aide who has tested positive.
“I have had very little contact, personal contact, with this gentleman. I know who he is. Good person. But I have had very little contact. (Vice President) Mike (Pence) has had very little contact with him. But Mike was tested and I was tested. We were both tested,” Trump, as quoted by PTI, told reporters.
Trump further said that the vice president and other staff of the White House would also undergo the COVID-19 test everyday.
“I just had a test. In fact, I had one yesterday and one today, and it is negative. Mike just had a test and it is negative,” said Trump.
However, Trump feels that the corona tests are erroneous and misleading.
Putting his point across, the President said, “But they do the tests and it just shows you that the fallacy — it is what I have been saying — testing is not a perfect art. No matter what you do, testing is not a perfect art. So we test once a week. Now we are going to go testing once a day. But even when you test once a day, somebody could — something happens where they catch something.”
Earlier this week, Trump was trolled by netizens for visiting a medical mask making factory without wearing a face mask.
