In recent news, United States President Joe Biden tested positive for COVID-19 while on a campaign trip to Las Vegas on Wednesday, according to an announcement from the White House. The 81-year-old president is reportedly experiencing mild symptoms.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre revealed the diagnosis shortly after the president of UnidosUS, a prominent Latino civil rights organization, disclosed that Biden would not be able to speak at a scheduled event due to his positive test result. The announcement has prompted concern and well-wishes from both national and international communities.
Biden’s positive test comes as a reminder of the ongoing presence of COVID-19, even as vaccination and precautionary measures continue to be emphasized. The president has been vaccinated and boosted, which health experts suggest could contribute to his mild symptoms.
