After releasing an upbeat video message from the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, US president Donald Trump left hospital to wave to his supporters in a motorcade. Throngs of flag-waving Trump supporters gathered outside the hospital where Trump was being treated for Covid-19. The move was criticised as insanity’ by one Walter Reed doctor. In the video message Trump thanked the medical team, saying: ‘The work they do is just absolutely amazing.’ He added that his time in hospital has been ‘a very interesting journey’ and that he has ‘learnt a lot about Covid’.
