This was not written for Trump. All involved in this article know Trump is going to recover and get better and continue on. They know they're not going to dissuade him.

Biden Jr., the Democratic nominee, with barely a month until Election Day. Even if Mr. Trump, 74, remains asymptomatic, he will lose much of his remaining time on the campaign trail. If he becomes sick, it could raise questions about whether he should remain on the ballot at all.
