Analysis: What Comes Next as President Trump Battles COVID-19?

Thomas A. Russo, MD, professor of medicine and chief of the Division of Infectious Diseases, was interviewed for stories about President Donald Trump’s battle against COVID-19. “We've learned over the last several months there are a number of risk factors for a more serious or bad outcome. One of them is increasing age, and the president is 74; that’s not quite optimal. We also know males don’t do as well as females,” Russo said.
