When the White House announces the results of President Trump’s COVID‑19 test taken on March 13, 2020, they will state that his result is negative (no active infection detected).
I think that the answer, the answer that we will get is that he's negative.
Explanation
Outcome of Trump’s March 13, 2020 COVID‑19 test
Multiple contemporaneous reports state that President Trump took a COVID‑19 test on March 13, 2020 and that the White House physician, Dr. Sean Conley, announced on March 14–15 that the result was negative.
- CNBC reported on March 14, 2020 that, according to the White House physician, “President Donald Trump has tested negative for the coronavirus.” (cnbc.com)
- TIME likewise summarized that the president’s physician confirmed Trump’s COVID‑19 test came back negative in an official memo. (time.com)
- NPR member stations (e.g., KEDM, WHRO) carried the same Conley statement: “This evening I received confirmation that the test is negative.” (kedm.org)
- A summary on the White House COVID‑19 outbreak notes that in March 2020 Trump’s physician announced he had tested negative after exposure at Mar‑a‑Lago. (en.wikipedia.org)
Assessment
Chamath’s prediction was: When the White House announces the results of President Trump’s COVID‑19 test taken on March 13, 2020, they will state that his result is negative.
The documented White House announcement indeed said the test was negative, matching the prediction exactly.
Therefore the prediction is right.
