First Lady Jill Biden tested positive for COVID-19, coming about a month after President Joe Biden initially tested positive for the virus.

“After testing negative for COVID-19 on Monday during her regular testing cadence, the First Lady began to develop cold-like symptoms late in the evening,” Elizabeth Alexander, the first lady’s communications director, said on Tuesday in a statement.
