Jill Biden, the First Lady of the United States of America, has come out of isolation after a coronavirus test came back negative on Sunday.
Last Tuesday, Biden's COVID-19 test came back positive, and her communications director, Elizabeth Alexander, reported that she was experiencing only minor symptoms.
She was left alone in South Carolina at the time, since her family was spending an extended summer vacation in Delaware.
However, after spending five days in seclusion, Alexander said in a statement Wednesday that the First Lady has recovered from the infection.
Her office reported that she joined her family after receiving two negative test results from the isolated testing.
“After isolating for five days and receiving negative results from two consecutive Covid-19 tests, the first lady will depart South Carolina later today for Delaware,” Alexander said.
Dr Biden had been with her family on Kiawah Island in South Carolina when she first tested positive for the virus.
She stayed behind while her husband, Joe Biden continued on to Delaware, their home state, where he spent several days at the family’s home in Wilmington before arriving in Rehoboth Beach on Saturday evening.
