Karoline Leavitt had to halt a press conference at The White House after a medical emergency occurred. Leavitt was seen ordering press to “get out” immediately

Karoline Leavitt was forced to halt the White House press conference on Friday.

The press conference was held as President Donald Trump swore in television personality Dr. Mehmet Oz. He will be serving as administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) during Trump’s second administration

As the press conference was slowly winding down on Friday, it was then dramatically cut short, with the screen going to black. The shocking incident comes a day after Trump was branded the ‘dumbest president ever’ following a shocking six-word geography blunder.

FOllowing the medical incident, FOX News then advised that Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt had to call an end to the briefing and quickly usher out one of Dr Oz’s children.

Leavitt could then be heard ordering the press to drop everything and get “out. Trump was seen momentarily leaving his podium to decipher what was going on, while Dr Oz’s wife, Lisa, put her hand on her chest as she revealed a worried expression on her face. Dr Oz meanwhile was seen rushing over to assist.

Further video footage showed reporters helping someone up from the ground although it was unclear who the person was.

Another FOX News host continued: “We don’t know what’s going on there, the press are being ushered out of the room.

“Obviously you can see that there was some situation that might have occurred, it might have been medical.”

Later, video showed a girl being supported as she was escorted out of the Oval Office.

The White House is yet to issue an update on the worrying incident.

Journalist Laura Loomer, who shared a video of the incident, tweeted: “It appears a young girl had some type of medical issue. President Trump walked over to assist.”

While it is yet to be confirmed exactly what happened, many people have taken to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their concern and well-wishes alike

Dr Oz, who used to have his own program, “The Dr. Oz show”, was one of Donald Trump’s most criticized picks after some of his historical medical claims.

In a BMJ study from 2014, researchers evaluated some of the medical claims made by Dr Oz on 40 randomly-selected episodes of his popular show. Researchers found that nearly half of the recommendations given by the man, who was given the moniker “America’s doctor”, weren’t supported by any scientific evidence, according to NBC News.

During one of his shows in 2012, he claimed that green coffee extract was a “magic weight loss cure”. However, later that year, a company selling the alleged weight loss wonder touted by Dr Oz, was ordered to pay $3.5million to the Federal Trade Commission. The settlement came after it was decided that the company had “used the results of a flawed study to make baseless weight-loss claims” to retailers, according to the FTC.
