(Reuters) - Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his running mate, Kamala Harris, will be tested regularly for COVID-19, an aide said on Monday, as the campaign prepares for the possibility of more public events in the run-up to November's election.

Since the coronavirus began spreading widely in the United States in March, Biden has done few public events, most of them close to his Delaware home.
