A large billboard offering support to President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump has been put up in the Israeli city of Tel Aviv. 

"God bless you, Donald & Melania" the sign which features images of the presidential couple reads.

It was erected after the news Trump and wife had both tested positive for the coronavirus.

Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who survived a serious bout of Covid-19 earlier this year, said he was optimistic about President Donald Trump's recovery.  

“I’m sure that President Trump is going to be fine, he has got the best possible care,” Johnson told the BBC, adding that “the most important thing to do is follow his doctors’ advice." 

The White House has released several photos of President Donald Trump in the presidential suite at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, where he is being treated, on Saturday. 

Jill Biden, the wife of Democratic nominee Joe Biden, said she and her husband were praying for President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump to make a quick and full recovery from Covid-19, at a campaign event in Minneapolis on Saturday. 

Biden said it was not "a matter of politics,” but about health and respect.

"Saturday Night Live" kicked off its 46th season by facing leadership turmoil set off when President Donald Trump announced that he has COVID-19.

"President Trump's in the hospital from Covid, and I just want to say my heart goes out to Covid," said comedian Chris Rock, who hosted the show that was produced with social distancing and mask-wearing behind the scenes. 

The show opened with Tuesday's contentious and chaotic debate between Trump, played by Alec Baldwin, and election challenger Joe Biden, played by Jim Carrey.

"I’d like to begin with a list of complaints. People are mean to me," Baldwin's Trump said. He then says the coronavirus is a "hoax."

"That statement is something that will probably come back to haunt me this week," he added.

White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows said in an interview with Fox News that President Donald Trump's condition took a turn for the worse Friday when his blood oxygen level suddenly dropped.

In the interview Saturday, Meadows described a more alarming situation than was previously disclosed by Trump or his team, which has attempted to downplay the president's battle with the coronavirus. 

“Yesterday we were real concerned," Meadows said. "He had a fever and his blood oxygen level dropped rapidly."

Trump's condition has improved since he was admitted to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Friday, and doctors were cautiously optimistic that this health would continue to improve.

"He's a fighter, as we all know," Meadows said. "He's not out of the woods. The next 48 hours or so, with the history of this virus, we know can be tough. But he made unbelievable improvements from yesterday morning when I know a number of us ... were very concerned."

New Jersey state health officials are frustrated in their attempts to contract trace everyone who attended a fundraiser for President Donald Trump at his Bedminster golf club Thursday night before he tested positive for Covid-19.

The White House and Republican National Committee handed over names and emails of the more than 200 attendees, what event they attended inside, whether it was a smaller roundtable or the larger fundraiser and whether they reported being within six feet of Trump at any time. 

According to a person who has knowledge of the effort, the state of New Jersey told the White House Medical Unit that information wasn’t enough. It asked for the phone numbers and addresses as is standard for effective contact tracing. The source also says it asked for the same information for the staff at the event. The state had received neither by Saturday evening. 

There is growing frustration and anger at the state level, according to the source. The information was first requested early Friday morning and was not delivered until 2:30 p.m. The source says New Jersey has had a robust contact-tracing apparatus in place for months. There is also concern that some employees could be from low- to middle-income communities that are harder hit by the coronavirus and harder to contact trace. 

Both the RNC and the White House said none of the staff came within six feet of the president for more than 15 minutes, and per guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there is no need to contact trace. 

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will depart for Japan on Sunday but will not go to Mongolia and South Korea as originally planned after President Donald Trump was diagnosed and hospitalized with Covid-19, the State Department said Saturday.

"Secretary Pompeo expects to be traveling to Asia again in October and will work to reschedule visits on that trip, that is now just a few weeks off," the department said in a statement.

Initially, Pompeo planned to visit all three countries next week.
