BREAKING:
A tweet sent out on Senator Rand Paul’s (R-KY) Twitter feed announced “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. He was not aware of any direct contact with any infected person.”
He expects to be back in the Senate after his quarantine period ends and will continue to work for the people of Kentucky at this difficult time. Ten days ago, our D.C. office began operating remotely, hence virtually no staff has had contact with Senator Rand Paul.

He is the third member of Congress to test positive with Covid-19. Paul is the first Senator to test positive. The other two members of Congress that have tested positive are Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-Fl) and Rep. Ben McAdams (D-UT). All three members of Congress are in self-quarantine at this time.
