WH spox Judd Deere says of Trump's whereabouts: "President Trump took a short, last-minute motorcade ride to wave to his supporters outside and has now returned to the Presidential Suite inside Walter Reed."

It looks like he went one way on that street, then turned around and went the other way.

Appears he just darted out for the drive by for the crowds and going back in.

ETA: CONFIRMED downthread - he just did a short escape for the crowd, and back into the hospital he went. He was "released", or broke out lol, for just that.

Wow!!! Dang good medicines!!!

My neighbor, 100 lb overweight, kidney transplant, COPD, diabetic, was almost comatose, was given convalescent plasma. The second dose she was sitting up in bed talking to her daughters on the phone. Next day moved out of ICU, third day to step down unit and was only in hospital becasuse follow up requirements for the convalescent plasma clinical trial. She lived 3 hours from the hospital.

Don't know if he just darted out for the drive by for the crowds and going back in. That might be? We'll have to wait and see................

I'm so confused. The news said he was released. Another station says no. *sigh*

In a video posted by him, he told the crowds outside that he was going to pay them a little surprise visit. Sounds as if it was just a short drive-around outside.

He thanked the crowd of supporters gathered outside, saying he was going to pay them “a little surprise visit”.

"So it's been a very interesting journey
I learned a lot about covid
I learned it by really going to school
This is the real school
This isn't the lets read the book school
And I get it
And I understand it
And it's a very interesting thing
And I'm gonna be letting you know about it
In the meantime..." - President Trump

I believe he just went out for a short drive to wave at the supporters. IMO that hospital will be relieved when he can be discharged.

This should be good for 50 pages. Jmo

Not sure if y'all still follow the IHME graphs which the Pres was using with his team which has been pretty well on target.

Oh my, I am really having a hard time believing the uptick that is projected in December. Even the best case scenario I'm having true difficulty with. (not sure which page this will land on, but you can drill down on global, US, and states themselves).

For many of us following since inception, it's been eerily on target.

IHME | COVID-19 Projections

(Discounting the graph for "easing")

Hmm yeah I don't see that either personally. One thing that has not panned out so far is the projected exponential growth in most places. Basically there seems to be some amount of self correction that slows it down even when people aren't forced to stay home.

We were one of the worst states this summer and now are one of the best despite so many schools being open and despite no mask mandates or stay at home orders. I'm not sure why it will suddenly explode in December. I should add that most stores started requiring masks because our governor was too stupid to do it.

In a vehicle with the windows closed - just to wave hi (will likely be leaving tomorrow). Yet another exposure for Secret Service, but who's counting?

LOL...

My daughter after the birth of her third child talked her husband into visiting the out door garden at the hospital. It was a beautiful day. When she got down stair, she pulled off her robe, was full dressed, keys in hand and wanting Thai food. Her husband did convince her to get it to go.

She's an outdoor person, confining her is impossible.

It seems to me the difference is some people believe in public health efforts, and others do not.

This article references the decades long public health campaign to reduce smoking, and that did have, in the end, some success. And yet, many people still smoke, parents refuse to vaccinate their kids against deadly diseases, people inject drugs they've bought from dodgy street dealers, I could go on. I think, to stay sane in the field of public health, you have to accept it's a hard uphill battle to get people to do what's good for themselves and each other, they just plain won't.
It's not just coronavirus: America repeatedly fails at public health

Yes. And even harder when our leaders don’t embrace those efforts. They’re supposed to be smarter than everyone else.

I was actually thinking when the president said he would have trouble being confined upstairs in the White House, so he went to the hospital, how little he was going to like being confined in the hospital in his infectious condition.

IMO

That’s super encouraging. What kind of health care does she have I wonder? People in certain areas still can’t even get tested!

I really hope that’s a portent of things to come for everyone.
