Doug Collins to 'self-quarantine' after interacting with someone with coronavirus [View all]
U.S. Rep. Doug Collins said Monday that he was placing himself in “self-quarantine” following his exposure to someone who was infected with the disease caused by the coronavirus at a recent gathering of conservative activists.
The Gainesville congressman was in close contact with President Donald Trump and other Republican officials during a Friday visit to Atlanta, and he said through an aide that he’s notified the White House, Gov. Brian Kemp and others about his exposure.
Collins said Monday that he was told by Conservative Political Action Conference officials that they discovered a photo of him with a participant who had tested positive for the coronavirus.
In a statement, Collins said he feels “completely healthy” and isn’t experiencing any symptoms, but that he’s “decided to self-quarantine at my home for the remainder of the 14-day period out of an abundance of caution.” That period is set to end Friday.
