Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced Tuesday she tested positive for COVID-19.
“Well, I’ve tested positive for COVID,” she said in a statement. “I’ve got some mild cold symptoms but am feeling fine.
In a subsequent post, the former Democratic presidential candidate said that her husband, former President Bill Clinton, has “tested negative and is feeling fine.”
“He’s quarantining until our household is fully in the clear,” she wrote. “Movie recommendations appreciated!”
A spokesman for the former president, Angel Ureña, said in a statement: “President Clinton is feeling well and will continue to be tested in the coming days.”
Clinton’s announcement comes after White House press secretary Jen Psaki has also tested positive for the second time.
Psaki said that President Joe Biden is “not considered a close contact as defined by CDC guidance” after she had “two socially-distanced meetings” on Monday, and that Biden tested negative via PCR test.
“I am sharing the news of my positive test today out of an abundance of transparency,” she said.
