BREAKING: President Biden has tested negative for COVID-19 twice and will come out of isolation, the White House said.
President Biden said he has recovered from his bout with COVID-19 and ended his five days of isolation at the White House on Wednesday after testing negative for the coronavirus twice.
Mr. Biden tested positive for COVID-19 last week and began a course of Paxlovid, an antiviral drug. O'Connor said in a released by the White House that the president completed his five-day course of the treatment 36 hours before and completed five full days of isolation. He tested negative on Tuesday evening and again on Wednesday morning.
"I've just tested negative for COVID-19 after isolating for five days," the president said to cheers from his staff."Thankfully, I'll now be able to turn to work in person, but I want to thank you all for your well wishes, your prayers over this past week, and the calls I've gotten. I also want to thank the medical team here at the White House for the incredible care they gave me.
"When my predecessor got COVID, he had to get helicoptered to Walter Reed Medical Center," Mr. Biden said."He was severely ill. Thankfully, he recovered. When I got COVID, I worked from upstairs of the White House in the offices upstairs for the five-day period. The difference is vaccinations, of course, but also three new tools, free to all and widely available. You don't need to president to get these tools to use for your defense.
