Biden tests negative for COVID-19, leaves isolation to return to White House
President Biden tested negative for COVID-19 on Tuesday and soon after left isolation to return to the White House.
The president took a Binax rapid antigen test and is negative, his doctor, Kevin O’Connor, said in a letter. Biden’s “symptoms have resolved,” he said. Moments before the negative test was announced, Biden’s motorcade left his Rehoboth Beach home to return to the White House.
The White House had planned for Biden to return Tuesday afternoon, before the official letter from O’Connor that he was COVID-19 free.
O’Connor said that Biden “never manifested a fever” during his infection and that his vital signs “remained normal” and his lungs “clear.” The doctor said he will monitor for any recurrence of illness and keep the White House updated with changes to Biden’s condition.
