The president, now 80, last tested positive in July 2022.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;This evening, the First Lady tested positive for COVID-19,&#8221; her communications director, Elizabeth Alexander, said in a statement. &#8220;She will remain at their home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Biden flew back alone from Delaware on Monday evening.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Following the First Lady\u2019s positive test for COVID-19, President Biden was administered a COVID test this evening,&#8221; the White House said. &#8220;The President tested negative.
