Barack Obama tests positive for Covid-19

Barack Obama says he’s contracted COVID-19 — but the good news is that he’s doing alright … attributing that to the fact he’s vaccinated.

The former President announced his status Sunday, writing … “I just tested positive for COVID. I’ve had a scratchy throat for a couple days, but am feeling fine otherwise. Michelle and I are grateful to be vaccinated and boosted, and she has tested negative.”

He adds, “It’s a reminder to get vaccinated if you haven’t already, even as cases go down.”

BO is the second living president to have tested positive for the virus — of course, Donald Trump caught it in 2020 (right in the thick of the pandemic) and seemed to be quite ill for a bit … as he had to take a pause on campaigning to get treatment and the to quarantine.
