Washington: Days after returning to the White House after being treated for Covid-19, US President Donald Trump has expressed his willingness to hold rallies for the presidential elections, with his doctor saying he is safe to return to public life on Saturday.
Trump and First Lady Melania tested positive for Covid-19 last week. The president was taken to a military hospital for treatment.

After spending four days, he came back to the White House on Monday. His doctors said that he had no fever since last Friday.
In a memorandum issued on Thursday night, White House physician Dr Sean Conley said, "Today, the president completed his course of therapy for Covid-19 as prescribed by his team of physicians."
"Saturday will be day 10 since Thursday's diagnosis, and based on the trajectory of advanced diagnostics the team has been conducting, I fully anticipate the president's safe return to public engagements at that time," Dr Conley said.

"I'm feeling good. Really good. I mean, perfect. And we're ready to go. I'm ready to go except the quarantine situation that you have for a little while after you get tested or whatever the procedure is. But I'm ready to do and I'm looking forward to doing the rallies," Trump said.
"I would love to do a rally tonight. I wanted to do one last night. But I think I'm better to a point that I feel better than I did, I jokingly said 20 years ago... I had a case. I got it knocked out. I think it was Regeneron that was responsible for it. Because of that, it was sort of like almost a gift from heaven because of what I went through, and I felt pretty lousy," Trump added.
