The symptoms that Joe Biden (79) experienced after his corona infection “continue to improve significantly”. This was explained by the US President’s doctor, according to a message from the White House. Last Thursday (July 21) it became known that Biden had contracted the corona virus.
Biden’s “predominant symptom now is a sore throat,” writes Dr. Kevin O’Connor in the message. Overall, the development is “encouraging”. Other symptoms, including a runny nose, cough and body aches, “have decreased significantly,” the doctor said. Biden, who remains in isolation, will continue to be treated with the drug Paxlovid.
The White House said on Thursday that Joe Biden had tested positive on the morning of July 21. The 79-year-old has already received his second booster vaccination and is suffering from “very mild symptoms”. The statement from the spokeswoman also said that the drug Paxlovid is intended to reduce the risk of a severe course. The US President continues his official business from the isolation. He takes part in meetings by telephone and video telephony.
