Biden Declines 2024 Reelection Bid And Endorses Harris, Still Hasn't Been Seen Amid Growing Speculation About Health

In a surprising turn of events, President Joe Biden announced he will not run for reelection in 2024, throwing his support behind Vice President Kamala Harris.

This decision comes as Biden continues his COVID-19 isolation, having been sidelined since testing positive for the virus earlier this month. In fact, since shocking the nation with his announcement, Biden has not been seen by the public and many are speculating that he's being hidden.

Fox News reported that Biden's decision was communicated through a letter released this past Sunday, detailing his intentions not to seek reelection. Biden's choice of a letter instead of a video to the American people has further stoked speculation about Biden's health.

He indicated that he decided to focus more intently on his duties as President for the remainder of his term, believing this would serve the best interest of both the country and his political party.

Shortly before this bombshell announcement, it was confirmed that President Biden had contracted COVID-19. His last public appearance was on July 17, 2024, following which he began self-isolation. During this period, Biden tested positive for the KP .2.3 variant of the virus but has been reportedly managing his duties from isolation.

Medical Condition During Isolation

Dr. Kevin O'Connor, the President's physician, updated the public regarding Biden's health, stating that his vital signs, including pulse and blood pressure, were stable.

"His oxygen saturation continues to be excellent on room air. His lungs remain clear," explained Dr. O'Connor. The treatment plan included the antiviral drug PAXLOVID, aiming to mitigate the symptoms and ensure a speedy recovery.

Before his isolation, President Biden attended Mass in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, on July 13, 2024. This was shortly after dealing with an unspecified incident involving former President Trump.

During his time at Rehoboth Beach, Biden stayed active in his presidential duties but refrained from public appearances, given his health condition.

Future Communications and Political Plans

In his letter, President Biden promised to address the nation later in the week to discuss in detail his decision not to run for reelection.

No public appearances were scheduled following the release of the letter, except for a daily briefing which was closed to press access.

Interestingly, Biden's announcement coincides with a scheduled address to the U.S. Congress by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. During his visit, Netanyahu will also meet with Vice President Harris, who now holds the endorsement from President Biden for the Democratic nomination in the upcoming presidential race.

The implication of Biden's endorsement of Harris is significant, suggesting a strategic alignment within the Democratic Party as they prepare for the next election cycle.

Biden's focus will now likely shift towards ensuring a smooth transition and solidifying his legacy during the remainder of his term.

Conclusion

In conclusion, President Biden's decision not at times of wandering from the 2024 presidential race underlines a pivotal moment in U.S. politics.

His endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris positions her as the likely Democratic nominee, amidst his ongoing recovery from COVID-19. Biden's commitment to the nation remains steadfast, with plans to further communicate his decision and future steps in the coming days.
