After returning to the White House yesterday, President Trump — who is still an active coronavirus patient — removed his mask for a photo op.

Trump thanked the staff of Walter Reed and said that during his three-night stay he had"learned so much about coronavirus."

"One thing that's for certain – don't let it dominate you. Don't be afraid of it. You're going to beat it," he said."We have the best medical equipment. We have the best medicines. All developed recently. And you're going to beat it." "I went, I didn't feel so good," he said, but added that"two days ago, I could have left two days ago. Two days ago I felt great, like better than I have in a long time. I said just recently, better than 20 years ago."Trump's physician, Sean Conley, said he is cautiously optimistic about the president's prognosis but that medical staff needed to remain on guard for another week.

"Over the past 24 hours, the president's condition has continued to improve," Conley told reporters at a news briefing Monday."He's met or exceeded all standard hospital discharge criteria." "Although he may not be entirely out of the woods yet, the team and I agree that all our evaluations, and most importantly, his clinical status, support the president's safe return home, where he will be surrounded by world-class medical care, 24/7."
