EXCERPT:
LIPTAK: 'The president says he’s doing fine. His doctor says that he’s doing quite well. And the president actaully told some folks on the phone earlier today that he was in the White House gym this morning before that positive test. So, medically, he seems to be doing fine. But this is a disappointment for President Biden, after it seemed like he was finished with his bout from the virus. The White House has had to cancel a number of out of town trips they had scheduled for the next couple of days. And the president will have to isolate here at the White House. He’s got his dog to keep him company. It was four days ago that the president emerged triumphantly from the rose garden to proclaim he had recovered from the Coronavirus using himself as an example of the stride this administration has made against this virus. He noted vaccinations, more testing. And he also noted Paxlovid, which is that antiviral that he had been taking throughout the course of his illness. But the White House is now attributing that Paxlovid to this rebound case. And they had really sort of down played the aspect that would happen. Listen to what dr. Ashish Jha told us last week.'
