President Biden is in good health despite having COVID-19 and his symptoms continue to improve, his personal doctor said in a note to the White House on Sunday.

Mr. Biden on Saturday completed his third full day of Paxlovid, an antiviral therapy pill to treat COVID-19, Dr. Kevin O’Connor wrote to White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.

The president is also continuing to receive Tylenol and his albuterol inhaler as needed for an occasional cough.

“His symptoms continue to improve significantly. His predominant symptom now is sore throat. His rhinorrhea, cough and body aches have diminished considerably.
