Trump signed the one-page revocation of the order on Tuesday, and it was released by the White House shortly after 1 a.m. Wednesday, hours before his term ends.

Biden's campaign then suggested the event be delayed a week until Oct. 22, which is when the third and final debate was already scheduled. Next, Trump countered again, agreeing to a debate on Oct. 22 โ€” but only if face to face โ€” and asking that a third contest be added on Oct. 29, just before the election. The Oct. 22 debate in Nashville, Tennessee, is scheduled to feature a format similar to the first. Bidenโ€™s campaign has suggested that it be modified to the โ€œtown meetingโ€ format, though the Trump campaign has not weighed in. As he campaigned in Arizona, Biden said he would indeed attend the Oct. 22 debate.

But to retrace some of his steps over the last week is to see risk at multiple turns and an abundance of opportunity for infection. The White House worked furiously to swap out staff who had been in close contact with Hicks and replace them with others. White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany did not make the trip. White House officials said they began learning of Hicksโ€™ positive test after Trump boarded Marine One to start his journey to New Jersey. And masks still won't be required on the White House grounds for all West Wing employees.

Read full article: 2nd presidential debate host withdraws amid virus outbreak

WASHINGTON The University of Notre Dame has become the second university to withdraw as the host of one of this fall's three scheduled presidential debates amid the coronavirus pandemic. The university was set to host the inaugural face-off between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden on Sept. 29. The first debate will now be hosted by Case Western Reserve University and Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, the nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates announced Monday. The commission has selected Cleveland Clinic as its health adviser for all three presidential debates and the one scheduled vice presidential debate. John Jenkins said the university made this difficult decision because the necessary health precautions would have greatly diminished the educational value of hosting the debate on our campus.The University of Michigan was scheduled to host the second presidential debate but withdrew last month.

Doctors at the Cleveland Clinic have performed the world's first kidney transplant using a single-port robot. CLEVELAND, Ohio - Doctors at the Cleveland Clinic have performed the world's first kidney transplant using a single-port robot, according to a release from the Cleveland Clinic. The single-port kidney transplant enables all surgical instruments and the donor kidney to be placed through one small abdominal incision. Dr. Jihad Kaouk and his team were the first hospital in the country to successfully perform a robotic single-port prostatectomy and kidney cancer surgery in September 2018. This robotic single-port technique could be an alternative for patients dealing with obesity or challenging anatomy, doctors say.

It was the first time the Cleveland Clinic did the surgery laparoscopically making a few tiny incisions in the abdomen to remove a piece of the liver. CLEVELAND, Ohio - The Cleveland Clinic just completed a unique liver transplant surgery, and they're hoping it encourages more people to step forward to help save lives.

The woman who donated the uterus might be long gone, but a baby girl born from the donated organ is alive and well. For the first time in U.S. history, a mother who received a womb transplant from a dead donor gave birth to a healthy baby. The Cleveland Clinic said their trial specifically uses the organ of a deceased donor, to eliminate risk to any healthy living donor. She gave birth via cesarean section in June after a successful pregnancy. We are grateful to the donor and her family, their generosity allowed our patients dream to come true and a new baby to be born, Tzakis said.
