Photos: Trump leaves Walter Reed hospital, although doctors say he ‘may not entirely be out of the woods’
President Trump stands on the Blue Room balcony as the presidential helicopter, Marine One, takes off from the South Lawn of the White House on Monday in Washington. Trump had been treated for COVID-19 at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center since Friday evening.
WASHINGTON — President Trump was discharged from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Monday night, three days after he was hospitalized for COVID-19 and hours after his doctors warned that they won’t know for a week whether he has fully recovered.
Despite receiving experimental drugs and setbacks over the weekend that suggested medical complications, Trump insisted he was feeling “better than I did 20 years ago,” even as his doctor warned that the president “may not entirely be out of the woods” yet.
