President Joe Biden says his deeper than usual voice is just due to a cold and not COVID-19.
After the president delivered remarks on the latest jobs report on Friday, he fielded a couple of questions from reporters.
Fox News’ Peter Doocy noted, “Your voice sounds a little different.”
He asked, “Are you OK?”
“I’m OK,” Biden responded. “I have a Covid test every day. They check me for all the strains.”
He continued, “What I have is a one and a half-year-old grandson who had a cold who likes to kiss his pop. He’d been kissing my, anyway…But it’s just a cold.”

During a speech on Thursday, Biden’s voice also sounded different and was interrupted by coughing.
His comments come in the wake of a disappointing jobs report.
According to data released by the Labor Department on Friday, the U.S. economy added 210,000 jobs which was half of the expected 500,000 jobs.
The unemployment rate dropped to 4.2%.
