Obviously there is age and your health to be taken into account but there is also the number of people you catch the virus from. You can get the virus from more than one person but if you caught it from say ten people then that will be a hell of a lot more severe than from just one person. This is why when there are clusters of people giving it and catching it, like care homes, they pass it on multiple times....and we know what happens then.
Both Trump and Johnson may have caught it from just one person. Obviously they pumped them with everything they possibly could because of who they are to slow down the virus....stuff that plebs like us probably don't have access to.

Alongside 24 hour monitoring, he most probably was having chest X-Ray's at least once a day if not more to detect any fluid in the lungs. His room would've been perfectly tailored to help his body fight the virus. He had the most advanced drugs that aren't even currently available given to him. The top respiratory specialists in all the best US hospitals were probably consulted and the doctors at Walter Reed I would assume had unlimited access to any Coronavirus research conducted in the US and ally countries.
Trump may be obese, old and unfit but he was getting care that some billionaires probably wouldn't even manage to get.
There's certainly perks to being the most powerful man in one of the richest, most advanced and most powerful countries in the world

Spot on. The fact that his care would have been incomparable to that received, or to be recieved, by the overwhelming majority seems to have gone unnoticed. However well intentioned, the care in a nightingale setting likely to be a tad different.
