       Following the first lady's positive test, President Biden took a COVID test on Monday evening and tested negative, his press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement.

       "The President will test at a regular cadence this week and monitor for symptoms," Jean-Pierre noted.

       Valdavia said Tuesday the first lady is working with Northern Virginia Community College, where she is an English professor, to ensure her classes are covered by a substitute and her office will adjust her public schedule accordingly.

       President Biden is sticking to his public schedule for now.
