President Biden on Wednesday continues to test positive for the coronavirus and will therefore maintain his “strict isolation measures,” the White House physician says.
Kevin O’Connor said in a letter that Biden, who completed a light workout this morning, was feeling well but “still has the occasional cough, but less than yesterday.”
“He remains fever-free and in good spirits. His temperature, pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation remain completely normal,” O’Connor added. “His lungs remain clean.”
“Given his rebound positivity that we reported on Saturday, we have continued daily monitoring. This morning, his SARS-CoV-2 antigen test remained positive,” the doctor added.
