Washington — Ending his most recent COVID-19 isolation, President Biden on Sunday left the White House for the first time since becoming infected with the coronavirus last month and headed to a reunion with first lady Jill Biden in their home state of Delaware.
The president had tested negative Saturday, clearing the way to emerge from an isolation that lasted longer than expected because of a rebound case of the virus. The White House physician, Dr. Kevin O'Connor, had said in his Saturday update that Mr. Biden, "in an abundance of caution," would continue his "strict isolation measures" pending a second negative test.
O'Connor said Sunday that the president returned a negative test in the morning and will "safely return to public engagement and presidential travel."
