Ten days after being tested positive to Covid-19, president Donald Trump returned to the campaign trail on Monday, October 13, with Florida rally at the Orlando Sanford International Airport where little social distancing was seen though some people wore masks.
“So powerful”
“Now they say I’m immune. I feel so powerful. I’ll walk into that audience. I’ll walk in there, I’ll kiss everyone in that audience. I’ll kiss the guys and the beautiful women […] just give you a big fat kiss,” Trump said to the crowd.
During the rally, Trump also mocked Joe Biden, whom he has nicknamed “Sleepy Joe,” saying that “practically nobody showed up” to Biden’s campaign event.
“Not infectious”
A few ours earlier, Sean Conley, the president’s physician, said Trump had tested negative for Covid-19 on consecutive days. And informed that the US president “is not infectious to others.”
+200k deaths
To that day, the Covid-19 had infected 7.5 million Americans and resulted in 210,195 deaths, according to an ongoing tally from Johns Hopkins University.
