(The White House) The Press Secretary for Melania Trump has announced the First Lady will be departing the White House immediately to seek medical treatment after her outlook darkened considerably.

“She’s just not comfortable here anymore.”

Though FLOTUS have been dealing with her COVID-19 infection very well – with her showing only very mild symptoms – things suddenly took a turn for the worse at around 6.30 pm when she approached White House staffers for aid.

“I must be taken to the Walter Reed now because of nasty husband – I mean nasty virus.”

As evidence of how poorly she was doing, she showed them the reading on a pulse oximeter she held in her hand.

“It’s 66 – that is the bad sign, yes? Because it was always 99 before.”

Fortunately the First Lady appears to have stabilized as soon as she was admitted according to the Walter Reed physician attending to her care.

“Funny thing is I haven’t even started treating her yet.”
