Donald Trump tests Covid-19 positive: Here is how the world reacted

Get well messages for US President Donald Trump poured in from foreign capitals on Friday after he and his wife tested positive for the coronavirus, but some had little sympathy for a leader whose response to the pandemic has been widely criticised. Here are some of the reactions:

WHO chief Ghebreyesus wishes Donald Trump 'full and speedy recovery'. Is Trump seeing this?

And people were quick to remind him of that

It was a matter of time before Trump's comments about wearing masks resurfaced

When Donald Trump apparently mocked Hillary Clinton

On the other hand, some were quick to remind him of earlier incidents

While some asked people to pray for his recovery

Some appeared optimistic about a quick recovery

Wishing my friend @POTUS @realDonaldTrump and @FLOTUS a quick recovery and good health, tweeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi

"Covid-19 is a battle we all continue to fight. Everyday. No matter where we live," European Council President Charles Michel said in a tweet, wishing America's First Couple a speedy recovery.

"Like millions of Israelis, Sara and I are thinking of President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump and wish our friends a full and speedy recovery," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tweeted, referring to his wife.
