Two days ago, #Trump mocked #Biden on masks: "I don't wear masks like him. Every time you see him, he's got a mask. He could be speaking 200 feet away and he shows up with the biggest mask I've ever seen."

Today, he tested positive for #COVID19. #BREAKING

Given his age (74) & weight (clinically obese), @realDonaldTrump is in the highest-risk group for hospitalization from #COVID19

Melania #Trump also tested positive for #coronavirus

In May, @SpeakerPelosi called Trump “morbidly obese”.

At around 240 pounds, Trump’s BMI is 30+ which is considered clinically obese.

As well as weight, people are at greater risk from coronavirus if they are 70 or older & have a condition affecting the brain or nerves.

First #HopeHicks, then Pence’s aide, then Ivanka’s aide all have tested positive for #coronavirus.

Today, Donald & Melania Trump also tested positive.

It’s not that long ago that #Trump called COVID a “hoax” that would disappear in warmer weather.
