After Biden was infected with "Corona" .. The White House: The symptoms are mild and we will not transfer power to his deputy
The White House has said there is no need for a temporary transfer of power from President Joe Biden to Vice President Kamala Harris, after he was diagnosed with the Corona virus.
Asked during a briefing whether such a temporary transfer of power was planned if Biden's condition worsened, White House press secretary Karen Jean-Pierre said, "The president has mild symptoms. He is able to handle the affairs of the American people from his residence. That is what It matters now."
Jean-Pierre left the briefing without answering the question whether there were such plans.
On Thursday, Biden tested positive for Covid-19, with mild symptoms of the disease.
Biden's trips have been canceled for at least five days, according to the White House.
In November 2021, Biden handed over his powers to Kamala Harris while he was under sedation in hospital, where he underwent a colonoscopy.
After the operation, he returned to the duties of the head of state.
