WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden tested positive for COVID-19 for the second straight day, in what appears to be a rare case of “rebound” following treatment with an anti-viral drug.

In a letter noting the positive test, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, the White House physician, said Sunday that the president “continues to feel well” and will keep on working from the executive residence while he isolates.

Biden tested positive on Saturday, requiring him to cancel travel and in-person events as he isolates for at least five days in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines.

After initially testing positive on July 21, Biden, 79, was treated with the anti-viral drug Paxlovid. He tested negative for the virus this past Tuesday and Wednesday, clearing him to leave isolation while wearing a mask indoors.

Research suggests that a minority of those prescribed Paxlovid experience a rebound case of the virus. The fact that a rebound rather than a reinfection possibly occurred is a positive sign for Biden’s health once he’s clear of the disease.

“The fact that the president has cleared his illness and doesn’t have symptoms is a good sign and makes it less likely he will develop long COVID,” said Dr. Albert Ho, an infectious disease specialist at Yale University’s school of public health.

Clearly it is not the norm to re-test positive so shortly thereafter again, but clearly this is Divine retribution for sleepy joe having lashed out at President Trump שליט”א for having taken off time during his Corona episode & sleepy joe saying he didn’t reduce his work load during his Corona episode. Instead sleepy joe should have been מכיר טוב to President Donald Trump שליט”א for producing these vaccinations with such warp speed instead of reviling President Trump שליט”א .
Maybe what sleepy joe actually meant to say was:- that since President Trump שליט”א works so hard he really had to reduce his workload during his Corona episode, whereas since sleepy joe anyways never works or does anything:- Hence that having Corona didn’t change his non-existent workload so much as even 1 iota.

The two initial covid shots and two more booster shots are so effective at infecting people with covid, I’m impressed.

Alright. We know what the deep state DNC wants. Stop playing games. Yank out Biden and put Kamala Harris in. It’s a win win situation. The fumbling stumbling Biden out of the way and our first African American female becomes President. Then, after a few dangerous gaffs by Harris, they’ll dump her as well. Pelosi will be trapped/kidnapped/shot in Hong Kong. That leads to what the progressive woke left wanted all along: President Pete Buttigieg, our first open homosexual as President of the United States! Yeah. America has made it and all is well. All racial tensions will end.
