Meadows. The president in consultation with the doctors will make a decision on whether to discharge him later today, we are still optimistic that based on his unbelievable progress and how strong hes been in terms of his fight against the covid19 disease that he will be released by that decision wont be made until later today. Harris chief White House Correspondent john roberts is live for us outside walter reed. John . No surprise that Kayleigh Mcenany has tested positive for coronavirus, she was in proximity to hope hicks last week, she was taken off the trip to bedminster because she had been in proximity to hope hicks, she went ahead with a briefing on thursday afternoon, she says that she did not know that she was potentially exposed at that point because she did not know hope hicks tested positive pay the statement was after testing negatively consistently including every day since thursday i tested positive for covid19 on monday mornings. Listed as close contest by the white house medical unit. In terms of the pool being called up here to walter reed, trace alluded to that a few moments ago. The white house wants to hit the pool in proximity to the president s doctors just in case they do decide to call a briefing, we expect a briefing may be called at some point today, likely not until sometime maybe early afternoon, midafternoon. The president did get out and about a little bit yesterday in the evening, he decided to get into one of his uparmored suvs and visited the crowd of the people gathered in front of the entrance to walter reed on National Military medical facility, the president wanted to say thanks for people who have been here literally since he arrived on friday afternoon. It did lead to instant criticism of the president for potentially putting his secret Service Detail at risk, here is the president in the throes of coronavirus disease and he gets into a confined space. But we are told by Corey Lewandowski who was on fox earlier this morning that the two secret Service Agents volunteered to drive the president and there was a plexiglas partition between the passenger compartment and the drivers compartment. Heres what mark meadows, the chief of staff set about all of that this morning. Well, the secret Service Agents, how do we think that he got here . We came here in mario marine one secret Service Agents have been with him in cars, we took initial precautions with ppe and others to make sure they were protected. We havent had a medical update since yesterday morning on the president , his doctor has said there were some tense moments on friday, it looks like the president might rapidly progress from mild to severe coronavirus disease. They gave him oxygen on medication and took him to walter reed so he could be close to aggressive care if needed and there has been some aggressive care, harris, over the weekend, the president was started on ram doeand his oxygen saturation levels dropped, i dont want to say precipitously but significantly, the doctors became worried and put them on a steroid called dexamethasone which helps improve lung function by lowering information. Harris . Harris john roberts, thank you very much, we continue to look live outside across from where john roberts is standing, you see people waiting outside in support of the president , waiting to hear whatever the latest will be today, whether this is about to discharge, continuing information about the president s condition. I am here on outnumbered, gillian turner, dr. Nicole saphier, host of kennedy on fox business, kennedy and in the center seat, virtually these days, cohost of fox friends weekend, pete hegseth. I was just talking about the people who were standing outside yesterday, they got a little bit of the view of the president as he choose chose to go in a hermetically sealed motorcade around town. First of all, your topline thoughts as we head into a new week . President trump sp 819. Pete the topline thought is we didnt know initially what how serious the prognosis was in the what the developments would look like. Thank goodness his condition has improved, he will likely be released soon, that is good news no matter where you are on the political spectrum. I also love the videos and messages hes put out over the weekend, especially the one on saturday that talked about being a leader, leading from the front and saying, listen, i had a choice, i could stay at the white house or go to walter lead and take this very seriously, i had a choice to hide in a bunker or be out with the American People and in the military we have a principal, you never want to ask your soldiers to do something you wouldnt be willing to do yourself and i think the president has said, we see these essential workers around america, doctors, nurses, police officers, grocery workers, who dont have an option to do their work from zoom or on skype and they have to be out there and the president has chosen to say im right there with you, i somehow also was able to contracted despite being in an incredibly secure bubble and im going to get through this just like so many of you have so i think his message of optimism, of leadership is something our nation needs to hear right now, harris. Harris peach, i may be living under a very largesized rock but i didnt know that about you and i wish you a speedy recovery from covid19. Pete who, me . No, no, im talking about the president. Harris i heard you use first person and i was like, oh, my goodness. Pete i was at the rose garden event and i have been tested, i tested negative, there were people there that didnt get it but ive talking about the president and hes situation. Harris when you quoted that first person, god, im glad we are on record clearing it up and also that you are healthy, obviously. Kennedy, there was quick criticism over the weekend when there was some misrepresentation by the doctor, about how the president was doing, he said he chose to use the words he did because he wanted those words not to have the Information Set things off on a negative course, i am somewhat paraphrasing but only very lightly, what are your thoughts . Kennedy yeah, i think we knew, we just had a sense then t things were worse than they were letting on and if theres one thing i dont like it is a lack of transparency and everyone has been touched by this virus. Personally or they know someone who has contracted it and god forbid who has succumbed to it and we know how quickly the virus can turn and i think its really important to be straightforward with the American People because we are not living in north korea, we dont have to be fed propaganda about the leaders condition so if he is deteriorating and requiring oxygen i think its okay to tell people that because it also lets people know that this virus is very serious and for some people it can take a very quick turn and you have to act immediately. I think the good news and i know drdoctor can speak to this is tt it seems as though they are trying some new stuff and for people who were worried about contracting it, that could be good news because if you can go to your doctor or the emergency room if you are experiencing the same symptoms and get a similar cocktail of that can offer a lot of hope. Harris thats a really good question. I did not find it was easy for people to gain access to some of the drugs, in fact, remdesivir is some of the hospitals at least in my area on the east coast, they purchase these medical facilities purchased ram doeandmake their own decisions t who is going to get that and i would imagine thats acrosstheboard so it might not be as easy as kennedy is saying, its going to depend on hospital budgets, their ability to purchase these things and so much more. Dr. Saphier thats right, harris, and specifically the regeneron, the antibody cocktail the president received at the white house, that is still an early phase one, two clinical trial, less than 300 people have been given it at this time, not exactly sure on the numbers, its still very early on. The good news is the data was very encouraging without any safety events and it seems the president did himself respond positively to it. In terms of remdesivir, yes, i will tell you that all across the nation hospitals do have remdesivir but it is in limited supply and hospitals are not giving it out to every person who is being admitted to the hospital with covid have a 19, they have to make sure they have enough for the people that really need it. Unfortunately it is rationing at this point because it is a very new medication. That being said, this Time Next Year i have a feeling we are not going to be in the same situation. Harris i dont know how much that helps the people this year because its its pretty expensive stuff, too. Doctor, if the panel will sit by i want to have a followup conversation with you about how this spreads. The words are still hanging in the air from when you and i talked on friday, time you spend with someone, more than 15 minutes up close, maskwearing, distance, its time, its maskwearing, those things matter. Another person in the inner circle and someone that we in the fox family know pretty well, White House Press secretary used to be on our air quite frequently as a guest, now she leads from the lectern every day, White House Press briefings, positive for covid. Thats right, harris, i dont know how many times i can say and stress that this is a highlycontagious virus. I understand they are getting tested every single day but we are still discouraging large inperson gatherings in enclosed spaces because it is not foolproof and we discussed this a lot last week, the virus can transmit on surfaces and you can then touch the surface, put it in your mouth, you are much more likely to get it by being in close contact with someone because not only is it in the respiratory droplets when they cough, sneeze, even speak but it can linger in the air potentially four hours as there is good evidence suggesting that the virus, not surprising that when you have one person in a larger Group Gathering that multiple people are going to get infected. Weve seen these super spreading events, we saw in in washington at our choir practice, the church and elsewhere across the globe, these things happen. Harris yeah, i immediately thought about what youre saying, youve got marine one, air force one, reports that hope hicks, they were trying to quarantine on that flight back from the ohio debate and i would imagine, i know its a big plane but i would imagine thats hard to do, its still an enclosed structure. Absolutely. Luckily, airplanes tend to have hepa filters so there Filtration Systems are better than a lot of enclosed spaces. Its difficult to say and dont forget you are still contagious before the symptoms start so she may have been quarantined once the symptoms start but who she came in contact before the symptoms starts are also at risk. Risk. Harris real quickly, gillian, i watched some of your reporting as well on National Security issues, curious to know what you learned. Gillian every source that i have spoken to, current National Security officials, former National Security officials all to a t tell fox news that the most important concern here is continuity of government. Not to raise alarms and say there is a need for National Security but continuity is something they are really focused on. A quick word on what dr. Saphier was just saying, i have some firstperson perspective to offer here, i myself had covid, i am fully recovered and it was a blessedly mild case but my doctors were not ever effectively able to figure out how i contracted it. I wore masks all the time, i stayed away from other people indoors and somehow managed to contracted anyway. My husband at the same time who i obviously live with stated negative the entire time. There are still mysteries about how the virus spreads, there are still a lot of details that we dont know now and are not going didnt know for a long time, harris. The reality is we still dont know, the medical Community Still doesnt know everything there is to know about how it holds and transmits among population so its probably going to be decades before we know everything about covid. Harris and they come from, doctor, and the same Building Block that the common cold is a coronavirus. Next, how the president s recovery from covid19 is shaking the campaign, the Vice President ial debate is still on for wednesday although now they are going to stand like 12 feet apart instead of seven and some other details we can tell you about pay the Trump Campaign says it is moving full steam ahead.

Harris Vice President mike pence and senator Kamala Harris still set to debate in salt lake city, utah, on wednesday of this week, less than a week after President Trump tested positiv positive for covid19. The president s campaign aiming to keep a very busy schedule, launching operation maga with less than a month until the election. Trump Campaign Senior advisor Mercedes Schlapp explains. We are not going to stop, the president fought for us for a long time, we are out there fighting for him, we are deploying the first family, doing virtual events, inperson events, this is going to go on, full steam ahead to ensure that we get the president reelected in november. Harris meanwhile, joe biden is campaigning in florida today, his Campaign Says if the president is able to make their second debate a week from this thursday, biden will be ready pay lets talk about Vice President pences role in all of this. He stepping into the poll here, we are getting daily notifications both for him and his wife of their testing results, negative this morning, we got one yesterday so we are up to speed on where the Vice President is and he will have a busier schedule i would assume in place of the president until we see President Trump again. Pete i think so, this may be the most important week of the campaign for him as Vice President , who wouldve thought the undercard could end up being the biggest show, he and Kamala Harris coming up this wednesday, a chance where she has embraced far left policies where joe biden is one of those liberal members of the senate, hes going to have a chance to focus in on whether its policing, taxes, the border, all the other issues at stake, she can draw a contrast that maybe didnt exist in the first debate and the campaign trail, i think report is supporters of the pret see him at a steady, loyal, steadfast supporter of the president , it will be very interesting to see how and when the president makes his way back out there virtually or in person, i dont want to get ahead of ourselves, his health is far more important than that but hes the real draw, the real energy comes from him, we shall see. Harris ph, if everybody will sit by for a second i want to do a quick followup with you, what do you think it says about the tone and tenor of this campaign when you see joe biden step back and he says, at least a few days ago, they are going to stop all the negative ads, they didnt stop all the advertising but the ones that were specifically negative against his opponent and taking a high road and all of this . Pete yeah, they stop some of the negative ads, not all of them were stopped, some did make their way through and if you look at the statements he made over the weekend if you watch very closely on fox friends, he was taking the eggs anyway, we all know theres a big difference in approaches between joe bidens basement strategy, stay away no matter what and Donald Trumps big rallies, we are going to let them make a choice and i as a leader will decide how and when im out there so they are contrasting views both of which are serious on the virus, biden still did take swipes and certainly Kamala Harris did as well paid and bernie sanders. Harris kennedy . Kennedy i actually am looking forward to this debate, its going to be completely different than what you saw last week and i do think that last weeks debate performance hurts the president in the p
