President Joe Biden tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday afternoon in Las Vegas, forcing him to cancel a previously scheduled address at the UnidosUS annual conference.
A statement from press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and the White House physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, confirmed that Biden presented moderate symptoms, including a runny nose, dry cough, and general malaise. Those symptoms did not develop until after Biden’s initial event of the day, per O’Connor.
