Live: FAUCI WARNS OF POTENTIAL 'REVERSAL' FOR TRUMP'S HEALTH



https://www.facebook.com/NowThisPolitics/videos/888426428228596

FAUCI WARNS OF POTENTIAL ‘REVERSAL’ FOR TRUMP’S HEALTH: Dr. Anthony Fauci of the National Institutes of Health participates in a virtual forum to discuss the development of a vaccine for COVID-19, courtesy of Johns Hopkins University and University of Washington. Dr. Fauci appeared on CNN last night to discuss Pres. Trump’s return to the White House after spending four days at Walter Reed medical center. He said that Trump ‘looked fine’ as he left the hospital, but warned that ‘the issue is that he’s still early enough in the disease that it’s no secret that if you look at the clinical course of people sometimes, when you’re five to eight days in, you can have a reversal. A reversal meaning going in the wrong direction and getting into trouble.’ Dr. Fauci’s remarks echo what White House physician Dr. Sean Conley said before Trump’s discharge, saying that the president ‘may not entirely be out of the woods yet.’ Fauci is also expected to discuss the recent uptick in new coronavirus cases across the country, as he told WTOP News yesterday ‘the country is in a situation where we are having about 40,000 to 45,000 new infections each day. That’s not a very good place to be as you’re entering into the fall and winter months.’

I don't think Fauci is implying that Trump is going to become critical. He might go back to where he was on Friday.

and while I'm wishing, please let it turn out (and be provable) that he insisted on going home even though doctors said he really shouldn't ... and then ended up way sicker ... and then ... you know.

... the for someone with COVID, he did look fine. He was up and walking. Walked up stairs. Not coughing all the time. Not bedridden. For Fauci, so aware of what COVID can do, he probably looked "fine."

He looked blotchy, puffy, sluggish, struggling to breathe,
wanting to cough, grimacing in pain...

Trumps other health conditions and the virus are about to cause a dramatic drop soon, and he'll be back in Walter Reed again, unless he hides it this time, and reporters don't stake out the hospital to expose his return. He is sicker than he's letting on , again. Dr. Fauci understands what's about to happen to him. trump doesn't.

And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be

Again look at the trajectory of Herman Cain....he got sick, he got better, but eventually died many weeks down the road,

So Chitolini is not cured and it could go Sourh weeks later....and he is of a similar age and weight as Cain.
