He is still experiencing a very occasional cough, but the cough is improving. His temperature pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation remain entirely normal. His lungs remain clear,\u201d O\u2019Connor wrote Thursday.\u00a0\u201cThis morning, his SARS-CoV-2 antigen testing remained positive,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Biden is expected to isolate at the White House until testing negative.<\/p>\n<p>Biden initially contracted the virus on July 21 before testing negative for COVID-19 days later and emerged from isolation last week. However, on Saturday, Biden tested positive in what has been described as a Paxlovid-induced rebound case, O\u2019Connor said.<\/p>\n<p>White House chief COVID-19 adviser Ashish Jha has insisted COVID-19 rebound linked to Paxlovid is a rare occurrence. But some scientists have questioned clinical studies presented by Pfizer showing that it only has a 1 or 2 percent incidence of happening.<\/p>\n<p>The COVID-19 diagnosis has complicated Biden\u2019s travel schedule, forcing him to scrap a trip to Michigan on Tuesday. He will also convene in an inter-agency task force on Wednesday afternoon and sign an executive order relating to abortions, coming after his Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against Idaho over its law restricting most abortions following the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade in June.<\/p>\n<p>Biden has received a total of four COVID-19 vaccine doses. He took two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA vaccine before his inauguration in January 2021, received a first booster dose in September, and got his second booster shot<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Joe Biden is still showing mild COVID-19 symptoms and again tested positive for the virus on Thursday morning, according to his doctor.
