Read our privacy policy President Joe Biden’s planned visits to India and Vietnam are still moving forward as planned despite first ladyJill Biden’s recent positive test for Covid-19, the White House has said. Although the president and first lady were in close contact with each other prior to Ms Biden’s positive Covid test, National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters on Tuesday that Mr Biden still plans to leave for India as scheduled, attend the G20 summit, then continue to Vietnam for a state visit. The national security adviser referred further questions about any Covid protocols to Ms Jean-Pierre, who insisted that there have been no charges to Mr Biden’s plans because he has not tested positive for the coronavirus. She did note that Mr Biden will comply with CDC guidance by wearing a mask due to his status as a close contact of the first lady, and said the president would continue to undergo Covid testing “on a regular cadence determined by his physician”.
