The Washington Post also ran another news titled, “Medical team suggests president tested positive earlier than initially
disclosed,” which said President Trump’s physician issued a “clarification” through the White House on the timeline of Trump’s getting infected.
It states that the doctor declined to answer specific questions about the president’s health, including how high his fever rose in recent days, when he last tested negative and whether he was administered supplemental oxygen.
In a news titled, “Trump’s Symptoms Described as ‘Very Concerning’ Even as Doctors Offer Rosier Picture,” the NY Times wrote about the conflicting information regarding the US President’s health after he tested povitive for the coronavirus.

The news states that the president’s medical team refused to provide critical details and left open the impression that he was known to be sick a day earlier than previously reported, forcing them to backtrack later.
“The White House offered a barrage of conflicting messages and contradictory accounts about President Trump’s health on Saturday as he remained hospitalized with the coronavirus for a second night and the outbreak spread to a wider swath of his aides and allies,” oppening lines of the NY Times article read.
The Boston Globe

The article said that as the president’s doctor and aides created vast confusion about his condition and treatment at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, bioethicists and historians said the mistruths and dubious claims that have characterized Trump’s health disclosures over the years made the current uncertainty all too predictable.
The Los Angeles Times
The news paper published a news titled – “New questions emerge about timing and severity of President Trump’s coronavirus infection.”
The LA Times article read that White House officials and doctors stoked new questions Saturday about how sick President Trump has been with Covid-19 and when he became ill, as the president’s medical team suggested Trump had been sick for a day and a half before he announced his infection early Friday morning.

“The new timeline, if accurate, would mean Trump held a rally and fundraiser in Minnesota on Wednesday and an intimate fundraiser in New Jersey on Thursday while knowing he was sick, potentially exposing supporters, employees and others to the coronavirus,” the article read.
“The White House quickly attempted to walk back some of the doctors’ comments, claiming Trump was diagnosed Thursday evening, not earlier as the medical team had indicated at a Saturday briefing at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, where he is being treated.”
