President Biden will not take a cognitive test as part of his upcoming physical exam, the White House confirmed Monday. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stated that Biden's physician, Dr. Kevin O'Connor, does not believe a cognitive test is necessary.
This title is a bit misleading: it implies that the whitehouse is deciding on not going through with a cognitive test rather than the fact that a cognitive test isn’t expected for the physical exam, unless the doctor is worried and recommends one. The doctor hasn’t recommended one in this case.
