Donald Trump repeatedly asked "am I going to die?" as he fell sick with coronavirus, it was claimed. Reports in America say the US President, 74, feared the same fate as a friend who died from the disease.
It is claimed he said: “Am I going out like Stan Chera? Am I?” Chera, a long-time supporter, died aged 77 in April in New York.
It was also claimed last night that Mr Trump was “still not on a clear path to recovery”. An official familiar with his health said: “The President’s vitals over the last 24 hours were very concerning and the next 48 hours will be critical in terms of his care.” The comment was contained in a note handed to reporters by White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.
