This was Trump at age 74: www.nytimes.com/2021/02/…/trump-coronavirus.html

President Donald J. Trump was sicker with Covid-19 in October than publicly acknowledged at the time, with extremely depressed blood oxygen levels at one point and a lung problem associated with pneumonia caused by the coronavirus, according to four people familiar with his condition.

His prognosis became so worrisome before he was taken to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center that officials believed he would need to be put on a ventilator, two of the people familiar with his condition said.

The people familiar with Mr. Trump’s health said he was found to have lung infiltrates, which occur when the lungs are inflamed and contain substances such as fluid or bacteria. Their presence, especially when a patient is exhibiting other symptoms, can be a sign of an acute case of the disease. They can be easily spotted on an X-ray or scan, when parts of the lungs appear opaque, or white.

Mr. Trump’s blood oxygen level alone was cause for extreme concern, dipping into the 80s, according to the people familiar with his evaluation. The disease is considered severe when the blood oxygen level falls to the low 90s.

Trump Was Sicker Than Acknowledged With Covid-19

When he was hospitalized with the coronavirus in October, his blood oxygen levels had plunged and officials feared he was on the verge of being placed on a ventilator.

Tbf, you know trump didn’t take it seriously at first and tried to “tough it out” until it started kicking his ass. Biden is already on Paxlovid. He’s definitely not 100% guaranteed to be fine, but he’s got much better chances, even at 80.

I’m so sick of the “will they or won’t they” game.

The writers need to break the tension; one of them needs to make the first move.
