First lady Jill Biden tests positive for COVID-19
First lady Jill Biden's positive test comes after she developed 'cold-like symptoms,' her office says
First Lady Jill Biden has tested positive for the coronavirus, her office announced Tuesday.
The diagnosis comes after her husband, President Joe Biden, recently tested positive for COVID-19 twice.
"The First Lady is double-vaccinated, twice boosted, and only experiencing mild symptoms," her communications director, Elizabeth Alexander, said in a statement. "She has been prescribed a course of Paxlovid and, following CDC guidance, will isolate from others for at least five days."
The positive test comes after the 71-year-old "began to develop cold-like symptoms" late Monday night, according to her office.
