Turns out, the White House doesn’t know much about President Biden’s COVID. Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was light on answers during Thursday’s press conference.
“Can you say exactly when [Biden] started feeling mild symptoms?” one reporter asked KJP.
“I cannot say exactly when that occurred…he told us this morning he had a runny nose, he had a dry cough,” she answered. “I cannot pinpoint the exact moment.”

KJP also had no idea where Biden picked up COVID —an important fact if you want to alert people who have come into contact with the POTUS.
“Where exactly was the president infected?” KJP was asked.
“I don’t think that that matters.”
Really?

From Fox News:
The president has begun treatment with the drug Paxlovid, which is currently authorized for the treatment of “mild-to-moderate COVID-19.” The antiviral drug has been proven to curb the worst effects of the disease, showing positive results of direct viral testing for those at high risk of progressing to severe COVID-19, according to the FDA.
Biden’s latest previous test for COVID-19 was Tuesday, when he had a negative test result, the White House said.
The announcement came one day after Biden traveled on Air Force One to Massachusetts with top administration officials as well as Massachusetts Sens. Ed Markey and Elizabeth Warren, and Reps. Jake Auchincloss and Bill Keating.
