The president's dismissal of a virus that in recent weeks has been killing another 700 people each day in the United States

when it comes to a patient that received the therapies he has so early in the course,"

If we can get through to Monday with him remaining the same or improving, better yet,

then we will all take that final deep sigh of relief."

Doctors said the president had gone 72 hours without a fever and had normal blood oxygen readings

which independent medical experts said could mean he has pneumonia,

有独立医学专家表示,这可能意味着他患有肺炎,

and would not disclose when he had his last negative test.
