Trump condition 'very worrying' with 'next 48 hours critical', claims White House source
Despite Trump's claims that all is 'going well' with his contracting of Covid-19 contradicting with a White House source who claims that the president's condition is 'worrying'.
U.S. President Donald Trump is endeavouring to portray a positive picture of his condition via Twitter claiming that he was feeling well with the help of the doctors and nurses at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

"The signs over the past 24 hours have been worrying and the forthcoming 48 hours will be critical in determining his state of health. We're still not on the road to full recovery", explained the source to a group of media members who cover White House news.
