She is fortunately double-vaccinated and twice boosted, and is taking Paxlovid, Pfizer's antiviral drug, according to her communications director. Her symptoms are mild and similar to the common cold, and though she's in a risky age group for coronavirus at 71, she's "feeling good," reports CNN. She's currently at a private residence in South Carolina and will return to the White House after two consecutive negative tests.
