Kentucky Senator Rand Paul has tested positive for COVID-19. He is feeling fine and is in quarantine. He is asymptomatic and was tested out of an abundance of caution due to his extensive travel and events. Senator Paul was not aware of any direct contact with any infected person. He expects to be back in the Senate after his quarantine period ends. Ten days ago, Senator Paul's D.C. office began operating remotely, hence virtually no staff has had contact with the Senator.
Two House members, Reps. Mario Diaz Balart of Florida of Ben McAdams of Utah, have tested positive.
The Senate was in session today (Sunday) seeking a bipartisan response to the pandemic.
