Trump received Covid vaccine and flu shot during second physical of the year


His doctor says the vaccines were part of routine preventive care amid mounting health scrutiny.

Washington D.C. / Bethesda, (insert date) —
President Donald Trump has received both a COVID-19 booster and the annual flu shot during his second physical exam of the year, according to a memo from his physician. 

The physical, conducted at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, included laboratory tests, advanced imaging, and other preventive health assessments.  Trump’s doctor, Navy Capt. Sean Barbabella, described the results as “exceptional,” noting that the immunizations were part of a broader health maintenance plan in preparation for upcoming travel. 

This visit follows an earlier physical exam in April. The dual checkups are part of the White House’s ongoing effort to provide public updates on the president’s health. 

🔎 Key Takeaways

  • The fact that Trump opted (or consented) for both a COVID booster and a flu shot during his exam signals continued adherence to preventive care.

  • The “exceptional” rating given by his physician is intended to reassure both the public and political observers about his physical fitness.

  • The medical visits also come against a backdrop of heightened scrutiny about the health of presidential candidates and officeholders.

Why one of Trump’s favorite presidents sent troops to US cities The controversial decision that shaped American law and presidential power — and why Donald Trump often cites it as inspiration. Washington, D.C.,  Former President Donald Trump has frequently expressed admiration for past U.S. leaders who used “tough” tactics to maintain order. One of the presidents he has referenced most often is Dwight D. Eisenhower , who, in a defining moment of his presidency, sent federal troops into U.S. cities to enforce desegregation and restore civil stability. The historical episode Trump often points to occurred in 1957 , when President Eisenhower dispatched the 101st Airborne Division to Little Rock, Arkansas , after state officials refused to comply with a Supreme Court ruling that ordered the integration of public schools. “Eisenhower showed strength,” Trump said in a 2020 campaign rally, citing the incident as an example of “federal leadership in chaotic times.” However, hist...
