Prayers up for former President Barack Obama. He has revealed that he has tested positive for COVID-19. He wrote on his Twitter account, “I just tested positive for COVID. I've had a scratchy throat for a couple of days, but am feeling fine otherwise.” Obama went on to say, “Michelle and I are grateful to be vaccinated and boosted, and she has tested negative. It’s a reminder to get vaccinated if you haven’t already, even as cases go down.” It was reported that Barack Obama had tested positive for the virus when he returned to DC from his winter vacation in Hawaii. Obama is the second known President to have contracted COVID with Donald Trump being the first back in October 2020. We hope for a healthy and speedy recovery for the former President.
