The president, who is vaccinated and boosted, will start taking Paxlovid and isolate while he battles the virus, the White House said. 

He had been scheduled to visit Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania Thursday.

This comes after President Biden visited Massachusetts to discuss new ways to combat climate change and push for clean energy. 

"Let me be clear: Climate change is an emergency," Biden said according to NBC Boston. "He pledged to use his power as president "to turn these words into formal, official government actions through the appropriate proclamations, executive orders and regulatory power that a president possesses." 

The White House said they will provide updates on the president's health as they come.
