President Donald Trump, with his wife Melania, commemorated Memorial Day by laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
Biden has been out of the public eye, complying with the coronavirus-induced quarantine, since early March, when he canceled a campaign rally in Cleveland scheduled for 10 March.
Since the start of the outbreak, the US has registered more than 1.6 million cases of COVID-19, including over 98,000 fatalities, the Johns Hopkins University count shows.
