US lawmakers may have been exposed to someone testing positive for Covid-19 while they sheltered at an undisclosed location during the Capitol siege by protesters loyal to President Donald Trump.

The Capitol’s attending doctor notified all lawmakers of the virus exposure on Sunday and urged them to be tested. The infected individual was not named.

Dr Brian Moynihan wrote that “many members of the House community were in protective isolation in the large room – some for several hours” on Wednesday. He said “individuals may have been exposed to another occupant with coronavirus infection.”
