First lady Jill Biden tested negative for COVID on Monday after a rebound case of the virus and will return to Washington on Tuesday.
The news was announced by her communications director, Elizabeth Alexander on Monday, the Associated Press reported.
The first lady had been isolating at the Biden family home in Delaware since testing positive on Aug. 24, while experiencing no symptoms. She had first tested positive on Aug. 15, while she and President Joe Biden were on vacation in South Carolina.
Like her husband, Jill Biden was prescribed the Pfizer PFE, +3.10% antiviral Paxlovid while she was ill and suffered a rebound case of the virus after her initial recovery. Paxlovid has been shown to cause some patients to test positive again two to eight days after testing negative, as MarketWatch has reported. In some cases, symptoms recur, although that has not been the case for the Bidens.
The CDC still recommends the treatment for people who are at high risk of severe disease. The FDA authorized Paxlovid in December in a move that essentially sent a sigh of relief through the medical community and much of the public.(snip)
The news comes as U.S. known cases of COVID are continuing to ease, although the true tally is likely higher given how many people are testing at home, where the data are not being collected.(snip)
The daily average for hospitalizations was down 10% at 37,734, while the daily average for deaths is down 3% to 475.

Nice propaganda how they call it a "rebound" case instead of calling it a compromised immune system.
Have coworkers who are on their second round of "Covid" after they got all their doses of the Jim Jones Jab.
More rare than dying from the shot.
