The Claim

A photo depicts Donald Trump in quarantine. 

Emerging story

After President Donald Trump announced that he had tested positive for COVID-19, a picture began circulating across social media that claimed it’s a leaked picture for Trump in quarantine. The photo shows Trump sitting on a prayer mat and preparing food.

Misbar’s Analysis

Misbar's investigation found that the circulating image is fabricated. Ivanka Trump posted a photo of the US President working in COVID-19 hospitalization; the picture isn't related to the circulating picture. 

The body shape and color of Trump in the circulating image make it obvious that this is the body of a different man and the image is photoshopped. In addition to the prayer mattress and the cans that show the Arabic language.
