President Biden had a slightly elevated temperature last night but his physician says that “his symptoms have improved” as he receives treatment after testing positive for COVID-19 on Thursday.

Dr. Kevin O’Connor said in a statement released by the White House that Biden had a temperature of 99.4 degrees Fahrenheit on Thursday evening, which has since returned to normal since he received Tylenol.

O’Connor says he still has a runny nose and fatigue and a “loose” and “occasional non-productive” cough.
