The first lady was found to be positive for Corona, after returning from a family vacation in South Carolina with her partner, President Joe Biden, confirmed today (Tuesday) the spokeswoman of the White House, Elizabeth Alexander.
Dr. Biden (71) is experiencing mild symptoms and will remain in isolation until receiving two negative results. "After testing negative for coronavirus on Monday, the first lady began developing cold-like symptoms late in the evening," Alexander said in a statement.

"She was tested again and found negative in a rapid antigen test, but the PCR test came back positive," the spokeswoman added while detailing that Mrs. Biden is vaccinated with four doses, two of which are boosters.
She also stated that she is also being treated with "Paxovlid" from Pfizer.
Only Health.

As you may recall, at the end of July the 79-year-old President Biden was once again found positive for the virus immediately after recovering a week before.
He is the oldest president the US has known and is clearly in the risk population of the virus and his first positive diagnosis was received shortly after he gave an important speech on climate in the eastern US on July 20, and it seems that that night he felt he had a cold with a runny nose and a dry cough.
The White House said in response that the president will wear a mask in closed places and crowded areas.

Last night (Monday) Pfizer CEO Albert Burla announced via the networks that he too has been infected with Corona despite having received four vaccinations from the company he owns. "Feels well and is experiencing mild symptoms," he announced.
