Two members of Congress from Massachusetts announced separately Wednesday that they have been experiencing symptoms consistent with the novel coronavirus and have sought medical care.
Representative Ayanna Pressley, a Boston Democrat, sought treatment for flu-like symptoms, was tested for COVID-19, and is awaiting test results, a spokeswoman said in a brief statement Wednesday night.
Earlier in the day, Representative Seth Moulton said he has been experiencing symptoms and may miss votes in the House in the coming days. Pressley’s spokeswoman did not say whether the congresswoman expected to miss any upcoming votes.
