Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) became the latest senator to self-quarantine, hours after attending the Senate Republican caucus lunch.

Gardner learned late Tuesday afternoon from the Tri-County Health Department that he’d met with a constituent last week in his Washington office who later tested positive for coronavirus.


“While I am not showing any symptoms at this time, I have made the decision to self-quarantine out of an abundance of caution with an effective date of March 11th at the recommendation of the Tri-County Health Department,” Gardner said in a statement.
