WASHINGTON – US President Donald Trump was discharged from the hospital on Monday (Oct 5) evening after being treated there for Covid-19 over the weekend, promising that he would be back on the campaign trail soon, although his doctors said that he is not yet out of the woods.

Mr Trump walked out of the Walter Reed National Military Medical Centre entrance without any assistance on Monday evening around 6.30pm, pumping his fist twice and giving a thumbs-up.
