RFK Jr. ‘ran away’ from fainting man in the Oval Office – insider explains where he went
White House officials shouted “Press out,” when a person, who has not been identified, collapsed on the Oval Office floor behind the Resolute Desk.
Dr. Mehmet Oz, Trump’s administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, was in the middle of speaking at a press conference regarding the president’s announcement of his weight-loss drug cost-reduction plan when the incident occurred.
“The White House Medical Unit quickly jumped into action, and the gentleman is okay,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt later stated.
Dr Oz was seen helping the person on the floor, while social media was filled with reactions regarding the way Trump simply stood at his desk facing the cameras.
Robert F. Kennedy, meanwhile, caught flack for appearing to “flee the scene”, though a source who was present at the press conference has now revealed that the Health Secretary excused himself in a bid to provide assistance.
As per the PEOPLE, citing the source, Kennedy “went into the other room and got a chair because when [the man] first started falling, he thought maybe he just needed to sit.”
