Former President Trump tested positive for Covid-19 on Sept. 26, three days before he debated President Biden and six days before the White House publicly announced he had the virus, former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows wrote in his new book. The White House would not disclose Trump’s positive diagnosis until Oct. 2, the day he was hospitalized at Walter Reed Medical Center.<\/p>\n

“Nothing was going to stop [Trump] from going out there,” Meadows wrote. The Guardian<\/em> obtained a copy of Meadows’ book The Chief’s Chief<\/em> ahead of its release slated for next week. The story broke Tuesday, the day after the Jan. 6 congressional panel announced Meadows had started cooperating with its investigation.<\/p>\n

After the positive test, Meadows said, Trump took another Covid test that came back negative, which allowed him to participate in the debate as both candidates were required “to test negative for the virus within seventy two hours of the start time.”<\/p>\n
