(Washington) US President Joe Biden’s health has improved since testing positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, his personal physician said in a letter released by the White House on Friday.
Posted at 12:03 p.m.
“His symptoms have improved,” wrote Dr.r Kevin O’Connor, stating that the 79-year-old leader had a very small fever, at 37.4 °, Thursday evening. Mr. Biden continues to experience fatigue, a runny nose and an occasional cough, the doctor said.
Joe Biden received a full vaccination against COVID-19, with two booster doses, recalled the Dr O’Connor, specifying that he therefore expects the president to “respond favorably” to his viral infection.
“The president is supporting the treatment well,” he added, referring to paxlovid, Pfizer’s anti-COVID-19 pill he prescribed for Mr. Biden.
Always according to the Dr O’Connor, the Democrat, who works in solitary confinement at the White House, is also given paracetamol and resorts if necessary to an inhaler diffusing a bronchodilator drug.
