First lady Dr. Jill Biden has tested positive for a rebound case of Covid-19, her deputy communications director Kelsey Donohue confirmed to CNN.
Biden, who is currently in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, tested positive again for Covid-19 with an antigen test on Wednesday. She tested negative during a routine test on Tuesday.
Donohue says the first lady has not had a reemergence of symptoms. She added that a “small number of close contacts” with whom Biden had recent contact have been notified.
Former President Clinton announced on Twitter Wednesday that he has tested positive for COVID-19 and is experiencing mild symptoms.
Clinton tweeted that he is “doing fine overall” and is grateful to be fully vaccinated and boosted.
Former Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) attributed his decision to retire due to the long-term effects of COVID-19, telling local newspaper Tulsa World that certain symptoms were still affecting him day-to-day.
Inhofe voted against multiple coronavirus aid packages meant to help Americans at the height of the pandemic, including the Families First Coronavirus Response Act approved overwhelmingly by 90 senators in March 2020, and the American Rescue Plan in March 2021.
The 88-year-old did not say which symptoms he was dealing with. But he suggested he was in good company, alleging that other elected representatives in Congress are also struggling with long COVID behind the scenes.
“Five or six others have (long COVID), but I’m the only one who admits it,” Inhofe told Tulsa World.
At least one Democratic senator, Tim Kaine of Virginia, has spoken openly about his experience with lingering symptoms after contracting COVID-19.

A message from Stephen: I always want to be able to do the show the audience deserves, but today Covid had other plans. Taking it day by day and I hope we can all see each other tomorrow night.
He's out for the rest of the week. I'm bummed too, not only because we're missing Rachel, but Jon Batiste was supposed to be on last night (Thursday). Hopefully they'll be able to reschedule.MN-Skeptic wrote: ↑Tue Oct 17, 2023 9:15 pm Stephen Colbert.
He did his show remotely last night. I only watched the monologue, but Stephen commented that he had everything set up from the podcasts he had been doing.
His tweet this afternoon, though:
