President Donald Trump was discharged Monday from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and returned to the White House, where he is expected to spend the near future in isolation.
The president did not respond to questions asked by the press during his walk to the motorcade. He was asked about the total number of White House staffers who have tested positive so far and if he considers himself a “super spreader.”

“One thing that is for certain, don’t let it dominate you,” the president continued. “Don’t let it take over your lives.”
“Now I’m better. Maybe I’m immune, I don’t know, but don’t let it dominate your lives. Get out there, be careful. We have the best medicines in the world … the vaccines are coming momentarily,” Trump concluded.
