President Joe Biden is feeling well enough to resume physical exercise five days after beginning treatment for COVID-19, his doctor said on July 26.

Biden finished the five-day course of Paxlovid, Pfizer’s COVID-19 pill, and his symptoms “have now almost completely resolved,” Dr. Kevin O'Connor said in a memorandum (pdf) to White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.
