Cunningham, 37, released a statement saying he self-quarantined on March 19 after learning he had been in contact with a House colleague who had tested positive. The South Carolina Democrat said he was tested after he was unable to see or smell, two symptoms that have been associated with the virus.

“While I otherwise feel fine, since March 17th I have been unable to smell or taste, which I learned this week is a potential symptom of COVID-19. I have been in contact with my doctor since I entered self-quarantine. Yesterday, my doctor instructed me to get tested for COVID-19 and following a virtual consultation on MUSC.care, I went to my local testing clinic. Today, I learned that I tested positive,” he said in a March 27 statement.

“While my symptoms have begun to improve, I will remain at home until I know it is safe to leave self-quarantine. I will continue to tele-work from home as Congress conducts its ongoing response to this public health crisis and my office will continue its urgent work of serving the people of the Lowcountry,” he added.

Cunningham announced April 30 that he had recovered from the virus and had donated plasma to help those who are critically ill from COVID-19.

Davis announced he tested positive for COVID-19 on Aug. 15 after developing a low-grade fever.

Following the diagnosis, the Illinois Republican said he planned to postpone upcoming events as he quarantined.

“Having consulted with the Office of the Attending Physician (OAP) of Congress and local county health officials, our office is contacting constituents I have met with in-person within the previous 48 hours,” he said in a statement.

Diaz-Balart, 58, was the first lawmaker to announce he had contracted the virus, with his office releasing a statement on March 18 that he had tested positive.

"On Saturday evening, Congressman Diaz-Balart developed symptoms, including a fever and a headache. Just a short while ago, he was notified that he has tested positive for COVID-19," the statement said.

The Florida Republican then took to social media to say that his health is improving and encouraged others to follow guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to help prevent the spread of the disease.

"I'm feeling much better. However, it's important that everyone take this seriously and follow @CDCgov guidelines in order to avoid getting sick & mitigate the spread of this virus. We must continue to work together to emerge stronger as a country during these trying times,” he tweeted.

Diaz-Balart announced April 5 that he was now virus-free. He later donated his plasma to help other patients.

"Congressman Neal Dunn, M.D. was not feeling well on the evening of Monday, April 6th and did go to the emergency room that night out of an abundance of caution. After meeting CDC criteria, he was tested for COVID-19 and has received notice that the results came back positive," the statement read.

Gohmert, who largely opted against wearing a mask around the Capitol prior to his diagnosis, tested positive for COVID-19 on July 29 after receiving a rapid test at the White House prior to a scheduled trip with the president.

After testing positive, the Texas Republican, 66, informed his office of his results in person sparking strong backlash from members on both sides of the aisle.

The conservative congressman questioned whether his positive coronavirus test could have been linked to his face mask. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s guidelines call for individuals to wear masks to prevent spreading the deadly virus.

The announcement came five days after Griffith, 62, joined an outdoor press conference on Capitol Hill with members of the House Freedom Caucus to advocate for reopening schools during the pandemic.

"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," Griffith's office said.

Grijalva, 72, announced he tested positive for coronavirus on Aug. 1, shortly after the announcement of Gohmert’s positive test.

Following his diagnosis, the Arizona Democrat called for members around the Capitol to abide by guidelines calling for individuals to wear masks to stop the spread of the virus.

“While I cannot blame anyone directly for this, this week has shown that there are some Members of Congress who fail to take this crisis seriously," Grijalva said in a statement to the Arizona Republic.

Grijalva, the chairman of the Natural Resources Committee, attended the same hearing Gohmert was present for shortly before the Texas Republican tested positive.

In the wake of testing positive for antibodies, Massie said he planned on donating plasma in an effort to help those struggling to fight the disease.

Rep. Ben McAdams (D-Utah)

McAdams was the second lawmaker to reveal that he had tested positive.

The 45-year-old said that after developing symptoms on March 14, he consulted with his physician and was tested once his symptoms progressed.

“My symptoms got worse and I developed a fever, a dry cough and labored breathing and I remained self-quarantine,” he said in a March 18 statement.

“On Tuesday, my doctor instructed me to get tested for COVID-19 and following his referral, I went to the local testing clinic for the test,” he added. “Today I learned I tested positive.”

On April 7, he announced he was virus-free.

“It hit me really hard. But I’m doing so much better right now. I'm virus-free,” he told ABC. “They told me I can be out of quarantine. I still am practicing social distancing and remaining isolated but I'm doing so much better.”

Paul was the first senator to test positive. He announced his diagnosis on March 22, with his spokesman releasing a statement that he “was not aware of any direct contact with any infected person.”

The Kentucky Republican, who said he was asymptomatic, took heat for attending work and going to the Senate gym instead of self-quarantining while he awaited his test results.

“For those who want to criticize me for lack of quarantine, realize that if the rules on testing had been followed to a tee, I would never have been tested and would still be walking around the halls of the Capitol,” the 57-year-old said in a statement March 23.

“The current guidelines would not have called for me to get tested nor quarantined," he added. "It was my extra precaution, out of concern for my damaged lung, that led me to get tested.”

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) announced April 7 that he was virus-free and volunteering at a local hospital.
