First lady Dr. Jill Biden has tested positive for Covid-19 and is experiencing mild symptoms, her spokesperson said Tuesday.
“After testing negative for Covid-19 on Monday during her regular testing cadence, the First Lady began to develop cold-like symptoms late in the evening. She tested negative again on a rapid antigen test, but a PCR test came back positive,” said Elizabeth Alexander, her communications director.
The first lady, who is double vaccinated and twice boosted, is taking Paxlovid, Pfizer’s antiviral drug, per Alexander.

Let's remember that after Biden got COVID everything started to change in his favor. Imagine how much more this will bring out of Dark Brandon!
Serious response: I wish her a speedy recovery.

It looks like we are slowly moving into Camp 5:

They are way behind the times. it is the saddest part of modern day humanity how we all over reacted to an over hyped virus.
It killed a million Americans, killed thousands every day at the peak and brought the healthcare system to its knees. People were right to make sacrifices to protect their loved ones and their community. Now that the science has changed, it is not as big of a threat. It should be obvious thought that restrictions and behaviour changes were the right response to a dangerous pandemic that we had no vaccines and treatments for.

In the past couple weeks, cases have been going back down again, and it's pretty steep too.
Also, the CDC said last week that 95% of Americans have immunity now. We're way past the herd immunity threshold, which was estimated to be 70% at the highest.
