Trump's son Barron tested positive for COVID-19, says Melania Trump
15 October, 2020
President Donald Trump's 14-year-old son, Barron, tested positive for COVID-19 but exhibited no symptoms after both of his parents contracted the virus, first lady Melania Trump said on Wednesday (Oct 14).
"Luckily he is a solid teenager and exhibited no symptoms," Melania Trump said in a statement. She said she and Barron had since tested negative for the virus.
Melania Trump said her symptoms were "minimal" and that she hoped to resume her duties as first lady "the moment I can."
"I experienced body aches, a cough, and headaches, and felt extremely tired the majority of enough time," she said.
"I thought we would go a more natural route in conditions of medicine, opting more for vitamins and healthy food," Melania Trump said.
Donald Trump spent three nights in a military hospital after announcing on Oct 2 that he and Melania had tested positive.
To take care of the virus, he received an experimental dual antibody therapy developed by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc and Gilead Sciences Inc's antiviral remdesivir, in addition to the steroid dexamethasone.
"In a single way I was glad the three folks went through this simultaneously so we could manage one another and spend time together," Melania Trump said.
