White House said President Biden had been experiencing mild symptoms. His diagnosis came as a highly contagious sub-variant of the coronavirus drives a new wave of cases in the United States.
President Joe Biden’s Covid-19 symptoms continue to improve and now include “less troublesome” sore throat, runny nose, loose cough and body aches, his physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, said in a memo on Saturday.
Biden’s lungs remain clear and his oxygen saturation “continues to be excellent on room air,” the doctor said.
Biden most likely has that BA5 variant, O’Connor said.
“The President continues to tolerate treatment well. We will continue PAXLOVID as planned,” he said, referring to the Pfizer Inc (PFE.N) antiviral drug the president is taking.
Biden’s diagnosis is the latest challenge he has faced amid threats to his policy agenda on Capitol Hill and high inflation putting his fellow Democrats at risk of losing control of Congress in the November midterm elections.
