This is speculation. Say he tested positive, then had few or very mild symptoms. Then worked himself into an anxiety attack and was taken to the hospital. All the information from the hospital is murky at best, but he could have been given oxygen to help with anxiety symptoms and to placate him. MDs were not free to disclose the facts leading to the stated diagnosis or report on his Covid test results. If he had no real or very minimal symptoms--voila! Instant recovery!
At the moment, he's on Limbaugh's show lying full strength.

He was sick with COVID. Most people sick with COVID recover. He was given the absolute best medical care in the world and unsurprisingly is on the road to recovery. That doesn't mean he won't have a setback or that the recovery won't be long but if you get prompt access to medical care most people do survive COVID.
If anything Trump's prompt treatment of what otherwise would be a life threatening condition shows the power of socialized medicine. What as made available to Trump should be made available to everyone at no individual cost.
