President Donald Trump returned to the Oval Office on Wednesday after his doctor reported he had been free of Covid-19 symptoms for more than 24 hours.
Trump’s oxygen levels and respiratory rate are stable, White House physician Sean Conley wrote in a memorandum released Wednesday.

Trump left the White House residence after remaining isolated there since returning late Monday from a three-day hospital stay because of the illness. His time Wednesday in the Oval Office, where he was briefed on coronavirus stimulus talks and the latest hurricane to threaten U.S. shores was his first known time back in the West Wing of the complex since he came back from hospital Monday.
Most people returning home from a stay in the hospital. Especially people struggling with Covid-19. They use the time to rest and recuperate. But on Wednesday morning, President Trump made it clear, in an extraordinary burst of Twitter posts, frenetic by even his own standards, that he plans to do no such thing.

On Wednesday afternoon, when Mr. Trump returned to the Oval Office, his advisers were exploring the idea of resuming travel events for Mr. Trump as soon as next week.
The president’s doctors said that they would know by Monday if Mr. Trump has gone through the worst of the disease, or if this was just a lull, which would not be unusual for the course of Covid-19.
But his eagerness to put his bout with the virus behind him and resume business as usual is understandable: With the election less than a month away, polls on Tuesday and Wednesday showed Mr. Trump trailing.
