The US President will continue to adhere to the tight isolation protocols, according to the White House.


Digital Desk: The president of the United States Joe Biden, tested positive for COVID-19 yet again after previously testing negative on July 30.

The President tested positive late Saturday morning by antigen testing after testing negative on Tuesday evening, Wednesday morning, Thursday morning, and Friday morning, according to the White House.

It signifies "rebound" positive, which is seen in a small proportion of patients treated with PAXLOVID, according to Biden's doctor Kevin O'Connor. He said that since Biden has not reemerged with symptoms and is still feeling pretty good, there is no need to start treatment.

The White House Physician stated: "As described last week, acknowledging the possibility for so-called "rebound" COVID positivity observed in a small percentage of patients treated with PAXLOVID, the President increased his testing cadence, both to protect people around him and to ensure early detection of any return of viral replication."

"In actuality, this exemplifies "rebound" positive. The President's symptoms have not returned, and he is still feeling very good. As a result, there is no need to restart therapy at this time, though we will undoubtedly continue to pay close attention "Added he.

The US President will continue to adhere to the tight isolation protocols, according to the White House.

"He will restart stringent isolation protocols, though, in light of his positive antigen test. As I've previously mentioned, the President continues to be extremely particular about protecting any members of the Executive Residence, White House, Secret Service, and other personnel whose tasks demand any kind of access to him (even if they are socially removed from him), "the physician said.
