Jill Biden S Experience With The Coronavirus Was Not Like Melania Trump S

Comment When Melania Trump contracted the coronavirus in October 2020, along with President Donald Trump, it was a time of terrifying uncertainty. There was no vaccine, the economy was in crisis, and more than 207,000 Americans, and more than a million people worldwide, had died. Now, First Lady Jill Biden has just recovered from her coronavirus experience under very different circumstances. Jill Biden was vacationing with President Biden and their family at a private residence on Kiawah Island, SC, during the summer from her job teaching English composition and basic English at Northern Virginia Community College. She is vaccinated and double-boosted and was able to take the antiviral drug Paxlovid, which has been shown to be particularly effective in preventing severe cases for people over 65, according to her communications director, Elizabeth Alexander. At 71, she is the oldest person in history to sit as first lady. Biden, 79, had just recovered from his own bout with the coronavirus when the first lady tested positive, recovered and then tested positive again in a “rebound” case. He was isolated both times, first in South Carolina and then at the Bidens’ home in Rehoboth Beach, Del. Fourteen days after her first isolation, on Monday night, she tested negative and returned to the White House on Tuesday. “He spent it like most people, being quarantined in two rooms, working on the curriculum, reading a lot of essays he didn’t have time to read otherwise, and watching too much Netflix,” says senior advisor Anthony Bernal. who was with her at both locations but did not physically interact with her. The first lady’s office declined multiple requests to name the Netflix shows she watched. Melania Trump, then 50, was at the White House for the packed, mask-free ceremony in September 2020 announcing the Supreme Court nomination of her husband, Amy Connie Barrett, who has been linked to the coronavirus infections of 20 people. including Donald Trump. wife, then White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany, members of the media and members of Congress. Until then, Melania had often rejected her husband’s approach to the disease, being the only member of the Trump family to wear a mask to presidential debates (at least sometimes). She even released a PSA about wearing a mask five days after her husband said: “I just don’t want to wear one.” While Donald Trump was at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center receiving an antibody treatment not yet available to the public, Melania Trump chose to stay in the White House residence and “take a more natural route in terms of medication, choosing more vitamins and healthy food,” he wrote for the official White House website in an article titled “My personal experience with covid-19.” It also revealed, for the first time, that Barron Trump had tested positive at the same time as his parents. The contrast in the two first ladies’ experiences with the coronavirus is, in its own way, a stark reminder of the differences between the two administrations’ approaches to the virus, as well as how much the experience of contracting the coronavirus has changed in two years. Many teachers would recognize Jill Biden’s predicament. She was recharging in the last few weeks before the new school year when she started feeling sick, had two tests for the coronavirus and suddenly had to self-isolate. The day before her positive test, she had completed a trip with the president and Hunter Biden’s family. There was a shopping outing and a bike ride along the beach in a wide cruiser, with the president, secret service agents and paparazzi. She tested positive the night before the president returned to the White House and canceled a trip to Disney World, where he had planned to give a speech at the Warrior Games, an Olympiad for wounded and ill active duty and veteran members of the US military. She spent the next five days completely alone – hence the copious Netflix fodder. “He told me, ‘We are blessed. We have medicine. We have vaccination,” says Bernal. “She says, ‘All I keep thinking about is all these people in the early stages of this awful, awful virus and what they went through.’ “ After testing negative twice, she headed to Delaware on Sunday to join the president. Three days later, she tested positive again. This caused more isolation. The president left to announce the administration’s sweeping student loan forgiveness plan, while Jill Biden stayed behind, at least this time, in the company of Willow, the tabby cat he met and fell in love with at a campaign stop in Pennsylvania. . farm in 2020. “She was able to hang out with Willow, so I think she’s less lonely, probably, because at least she has someone with her,” says Bernal. The only fresh air he got was on the verandahs and lawns where he lived. In Washington, he’s been known to go to classes naked. He is a cyclist. “Working out was always something we factored into the scheduling equation,” says Michael LaRosa, her former White House press secretary, who also worked with her on the 2020 campaign. “I can’t imagine how hard it was for her to cut back. in the prison of Covid”. Her personal human interaction consisted only of Bernal, who delivered her meals over a long distance. She was also in regular communication with her doctor. “One of the things we’ve tried to respect is the fact that he can’t just leave and go somewhere without the Secret Service and we don’t want to put them [in any position to be exposed]Bernal explains. “That way he doesn’t get in the cars with them.” Jill Biden spent much of 2021 as the administration’s chief ambassador for vaccinations. She has visited states like Mississippi and Tennessee with low vaccination rates and plenty of hostility toward her husband, and she renews those efforts whenever a new group becomes eligible for vaccination: young adults, children, infants. Both Melania Trump and Donald Trump received a coronavirus vaccine before leaving the White House in January 2021, when vaccines were not readily available to the public, but the former president’s office did not acknowledge their vaccinations for four months. Unlike Melania Trump, who has rarely targeted Republicans or her husband, Jill Biden is expected to raise funds in a tight midterm election. Already, the recovery case prevented her from joining the president at a fundraiser in Rockville, Md., when she returned to the campaign trail, railing against Trump’s “semi-fascism.” She also missed her community college’s annual convocation at the start of the school year. Instead, she sat outside at her Rehoboth Beach home, using Zoom on her computer to participate in three days of meetings. In 2020, Melania Trump wrote on the White House website that she had managed to overcome the coronavirus infection with “minimal symptoms”, such as body aches, cough, headaches and extreme exhaustion. After her husband returned to the White House while still contagious, Melania Trump’s office released a statement detailing the coronavirus precautions they had taken at the White House residence, following critical media reports about the risk of coronavirus to butlers, valets and other public servants running around. the apartments of the first family. “I spent much of my time thinking about my family,” Melania wrote in her essay after her recovery after testing negative. “I also thought of the hundreds of thousands of people across our country who have been affected by this disease that infects people indiscriminately.” He warned that, with the upcoming election, “it was easy to get caught up in so much negative energy.” Two days later, Melania Trump wrote another essay that she said was inspired by the three weeks she had to “think about things personally about me.” She had realized she wanted to devote her “time and effort” to helping children and criticized the media for overlooking the good work of her Be Best initiative and instead focusing on the “noise made by self-serving adults”. Jill Biden has so far not written about her experience with the coronavirus. She has a busy and probably now Covid free fall ahead of her. There is planning for Halloween and Christmas parties that have been canceled the past two years due to the pandemic. In September, she will join the President at the United Nations General Assembly for the first time as First Lady and plans to approach Hispanic Heritage Month. It will give her a chance to practice her Spanish. She’s been studying all summer, Bernal says, taking online classes and also working with an app on her phone. (The White House did not reveal which ones.) The approach may go a long way toward making amends for the gaffe that Jill Biden made in July, when she appeared to compare Latino diversity to breakfast tacos at an event in San Antonio celebrating Latinos. “I think most Latinos know what he’s done and that he’s stolen and turned up,” Bernal says. “He’s trying and I think most people say that’s what matters.” Now out of seclusion, he’s back to full-time teaching, which begins the day after Labor Day, with morning classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and plenty of grading papers on White House planes in between. And then, of course, there’s her granddaughter Naomi’s wedding to fiancé Peter Neal. Naomi is the eldest daughter of Hunter Biden and the first grandchild of Joe and Jill by marriage. The Bidens, not the taxpayers, will pay for it. It will be the 19th White House wedding in history and the first since 2013. Well, you know, just a stress-free relaxing program to ease back into post-Covid life.
