Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart spoke out Saturday about his battle with COVID-19 after testing positive for the coronavirus, saying he believes the "worst part" has passed.
"It's a tricky bug because just when I thought I was over it or I was pretty close to getting over it, the fever will come back," the Florida Republican said during his first on-camera interview on NBC's "Nightly News."
Diaz-Belart, 58, recalled the symptoms he said "hit him like a ton of bricks" last Saturday after he voted on a coronavirus response bill on the House floor, describing a headache that quickly developed into a fever and cough.
