'Feeling strong'
In an appearance on Fox News on Friday evening, Trump said he had been tested again for the virus but did not disclose the result. He also said he had stopped taking medications to combat covid-19. "I feel really strong," Trump said.
The White House has not released the results of Trump's latest test, and has declined to say when he last tested negative.
Trump and his administration have faced criticism for their handling of the pandemic, as well as for a lax approach to mask-wearing and social distancing in the White House and - in recent days - confusing messages about how ill the president has been.
