The White House reported on Tuesday that first lady Jill Biden tested positive for Covid-19 and was exhibiting "moderate symptoms."

When she started having symptoms on Monday, she was on vacation in South Carolina with Vice President Joe Biden. She will remain in the vacation home for at least five days while taking the antiviral medication Paxlovid.

The White House reported that Joe Biden's virus test came back negative on Tuesday morning, but he will still follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's advice and wear a mask indoors for 10 days. On August 7, he recovered from a recurrence of the illness.
