And the newspaper “Washington Post” wrote that Biden was injured after he learned, like other Americans, to live in light of the possible risks of infection with “Covid 19”.
Biden made a significant change in his dealings with “Covid 19” disease, becoming more mobile, and no longer wearing a muzzle permanently, as he often shook hands.
On July 7, for example, Biden held a party in the East Room of the White House, and distributed “Medals of Freedom” to 17 Americans who excelled in a number of fields.
The US President did not hesitate to shake hands and hug most of the recipients who received the prestigious medal, while such activities were subject to strict precautionary measures until recently.
The newspaper said that the president was ruling like a shell in his early days, because he was limited to holding meetings with video technology, while he avoided travel as much as possible.
But the president and those close to him conducted a reassessment of the existing risks due to the virus, and chose to ease restrictions, especially in light of taking the required doses of the vaccine.
And health expert Andy Slavett, who advised the Biden administration on responding to the epidemic, says that a person cannot stop the things he wants indefinitely, whether he is the president of the United States exercising his duties or someone doing something or going to school.
Slavet added that Corona disease has become swirling around us like a cold, even if it has more severe symptoms, which means the need to live with the infection.
continuous improvement
In the meantime, the US president’s health condition continues to improve, while he is responding well to treatment, as his personal physician announced in a letter published by the White House.
Dr Kevin O’Connor wrote that his “symptoms are continuing to improve” after confirming the previous day that the president had become better.
Biden, 79, still has a sore throat, cough, muscle aches and a runny nose.
The Democratic president, who has received a full vaccination against “Covid-19”, is being treated with Paxilovide, a pill made by the antiviral company Pfizer.
This drug works by reducing the ability of the virus to reproduce, thus stopping the progression of the disease.
It is recommended in the United States for people at high risk of infection, a category that the US president falls into because of his age.
O’Connor noted that the president is likely infected with the highly pathogenic PA5: sub-Omicron mutant, which accounts for about 80 percent of infections in the United States.
