In a video message released Wednesday night, President Trump offered effusive praise to the pharmaceutical company Regeneron, saying that catching the COVID-19 virus was "a blessing from God."
Trump said he wanted "everybody to be given the same treatment as your president," following criticisms from those who suggested he was given better treatment than the average American has access to.
Trump also issued a direct threat to China, the origin of the virus, saying it would "pay a big price," although he did not offer specifics of what that meant.
