This morning I received a positive COVID-19 test result and will be quarantined for the 14 days.

After going to 2 urgent care centers yesterday, I finally got an appointment at a 3rd site and was tested this morning.

Contrary to popular belief, MOC do not get tested regularly. In fact we are not mass tested at all in DC. Masks, social distancing & frequent floor cleanings are the precautions that are taken in the House. I have taken every possible precaution and still contracted coronavirus.

My experience and the experience of my staff underscore the need for a nat’l testing strategy with a coherent way to receive speedy, accurate results. This level of anxiety and uncertainty is untenable. I am asymptomatic, except for breathing issues which are being monitored.

Please keep my family and my staff in your prayers.
