Xinhua News Agency, Washington, July 30 (Reporter Sun Ding) White House Presidential doctor Kevin O'Connor said on the 30th that President Biden tested positive for the new crown virus again that day.
O'Connor said in a memo to the White House that Biden was tested for the new coronavirus antigen that morning and came back positive.
Biden has no symptoms of infection again and is feeling well. He does not need to resume treatment at present, but needs to continue to observe and re-enter isolation.
Biden was diagnosed with the new coronavirus for the first time on the 21st, with symptoms such as runny nose, sore throat and fatigue.
During the isolation period, he continued to take the combination of the antiviral oral drug nematevir/ritonavir for the treatment of new crown infection.
On the 27th, Biden's new crown virus test result was negative, and then he ended his isolation.
O'Connor said a small percentage of COVID-19 patients taking the nematevir/ritonavir combination had retested positives.
