President Joe Biden tested negative for COVID-19 Tuesday night after isolating for five days, according to White House physician Kevin O’Connor.
“His symptoms have been steadily improving, and are almost completely resolved,” said O’Connor in a statement, adding that Biden will now “discontinue his strict isolation measures,” but will “increase his testing cadence” in case of so-called “rebound” COVID positivity “observed in a small percentage of patients treated with Paxlovid” – which is what happened to Dr. Anthony Fauci.
