Trump was hospitalized Friday evening, nearly 18 hours after announcing on Twitter that he and wife Melania Trump tested positive for the coronavirus.

Conley said on Friday that Trump was "fatigued" and Trump's Chief of Staff Mark Meadows said the president had "mild" symptoms.

Trump was flown to Walter Reed Medical Center via Marine One Friday evening "out of an abundance of caution."

The president was treated with an experimental polyclonal antibody cocktail and the drug Remdesivir to treat the virus.
