On Wednesday, it was reported that two U.S. Reps., Democrat Ben McAdams of Utah and Republican Mario Díaz-Balart of Florida tested positive for Chinese Wuhan Coronavirus.
“On Saturday evening, Congressman Diaz-Balart developed symptoms including a fever and headache. Just a short while ago, he was notified that he has tested positive for COVID-19,” Díaz-Balart’s office said in a news release.
“We must continue to work together to emerge stronger as a country during these trying times,” said Díaz-Balart.
“Today I learned that I tested positive,” said McAdams in a statement released on Twitter. “I am still working for Utahns and pursuing efforts to get Utahns the resources they need as I continue doing my job from home until I know it is safe to end my self-quarantine.”
