President Joe Biden tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday and is experiencing “very mild symptoms.”
FILE - President Joe Biden walks on the South Lawn of the White House after stepping off Marine One, July 20, 2022, in Washington.Jean-Pierre described the president's symptoms as"very mild" and said Biden had been in contact with members of the White House staff by phone and would participate in his planned meetings"via phone and Zoom from the residence.”
Jean-Pierre said Biden had last tested negative on Tuesday, and he will stay isolated until he tests negative again. Up to this point, Biden’s ability to avoid the virus seemed to defy the odds, even with the testing procedures in place for those expected to be in close contact with him. Prior waves of the virus swept through Washington’s political class, infecting Vice President Kamala Harris, Cabinet members, White House staffers and lawmakers. Biden has increasingly stepped up his travel schedule and resumed holding large indoor events where not everyone is tested.
In an April 30 speech to more than 2,600 attendees at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, Biden acknowledged the risks of attending large events, but said it was worthwhile to attend.
