Exciting news! First Lady Jill Biden has unfortunately tested positive for Covid and is currently experiencing mild symptoms, according to her communications director. But don’t worry, President Joe Biden tested negative on Monday evening and will continue to get tested regularly this week while monitoring for any symptoms.
Just a few days ago, the Bidens visited Florida to speak with those affected by the hurricane. And earlier today, the president even gave a speech at a Labor Day event in Philadelphia.
While the first lady remains in Rehoboth Beach, DE, where the Bidens have a home, let’s send her our well wishes for a speedy recovery.
Interestingly, both the president and the first lady previously tested positive for Covid back in the summer of 2022. They were treated with Paxlovid, but unfortunately, the president experienced a rebound of the virus.
