First Lady Jill Biden has tested positive for COVID, according to a statement from her office on Monday. President Joe Biden tested negative for the virus.
"This evening, the First Lady tested positive for COVID-19," the statement read. "She is currently experiencing only mild symptoms. She will remain at their home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware."
The First Lady is double-vaccinated, twice boosted, according to a statement from her communications director last year.
The last time the 72-year-old tested positive for the virus was in August 2022. At the time, she was staying at a private residence in South Carolina.
The announcement comes amid rising COVID cases and hospitalizations throughout the country, as several hospital systems have reinstated mask-wearing requirements for patients and staff.
