Rep. Morgan Griffith (R-Va.) revealed on Tuesday that he has tested positive for COVID-19, making him the ninth member of Congress with a confirmed or presumed case.

Griffith's office said in a statement that he took a coronavirus test over the weekend after "developing possible symptoms" and has since been self-isolating.

"Although he does not currently have significant symptoms, he will continue to self-isolate as he performs his duties on behalf of Virginia's Ninth Congressional District," the statement said.

Griffith's diagnosis comes five days after he participated in a press conference on Capitol Hill with members of the conservative House Freedom Caucus to push for reopening schools in the fall amid the coronavirus pandemic despite safety concerns from educators and some parents.

6. Yeah.

I would love to see COVID19 grab him by the nose and kick him in the ass real hard a few times, then release him back to life to undo all the bad shit that he likely has done.
