Trump's doctors say the president is getting better. But they also started him on a steroid usually reserved for patients with 'severe and critical COVID-19'

dexamethasone reduces risk of death in such patients, who require supplemental oxygen and ventilators to breathe. But the benefits of such a steroid come at a cost: they blunt the immune system's response, which means it takes longer for the body toDr. Panagis Galiatsatos, a pulmonary physician at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center, said he's seen steroids work well for critically ill people, but that they're by no means curative.

President Trump is shown working at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., on Oct. 3, 2020.Trump needed supplemental oxygen at least once â€" for an hour on Friday at the White House, and possibly again in the hospital Saturday. "If [Trump is] telling me he's much more short of breath where his work of breathing is bad and I'm looking at the pulse oximeter and his oxygen is low, I'm pulling the trigger for the steroid at that moment because I'm about to put him on a breathing machine," Galiatsatos said of how he might approach the situation.

Corticosteroids decrease inflammation. It’s used in many various inflammatory conditions. Stick with business

They give NFL players oxygen on the sidelines. Chill out folks. POTUS will be just fine.

Is it possible his doctors are not being truthful?

He is the President. They said at the press conference that the rewards were much greater than the risk.

As sure as water is wet, Trump would be tweeting if he was able.
