President Joe Biden’s health is improving after he was diagnosed with COVID-19 on Wednesday while traveling in Las Vegas, according to the Physician to the President.
A statement issued by Dr. Kevin O’Connor says that the president completed his sixth dose of PAXLOVID – a prescription medicine used to treat mild-to-moderate coronavirus symptoms – on Saturday morning.
“He is still experiencing a loose, non-productive cough and hoarseness, but his symptoms continue to improve steadily,” Dr. O’Connor’s statement read. “His pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and temperature remain absolutely normal.”
Biden’s oxygen saturation is “excellent,” and his lungs remain clear, Dr. O’Connor added.
