Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Catches COVID After Miami NYE



Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez caught a case of coronaviruses a full 7 days after she went to Florida, so she probably regrets going.

The New York congresswoman said on Sunday that she had a positive test result but didn't say when. She says she is feeling unwell and is at home.

Her office states that she received her booster shot in the fall, and that she is double-vaccinated. She encourages everyone to follow all CDC guidelines, and to get vaccinations.

The last part is getting a bit of backlash because of how the Representative was down in the sunshine state for New Year's with her boyfriend, where she appeared to be mostly maskless.

A lot of the photos and video of her in Miami are outside, which seems to help.

Many found it interesting that she had fled to a state where she was critical of the governor's handling of COVID.

The first member of Congress to test positive for cocaine was Rep. Ocasio-Cortez.

The halls in D.C. seem to be spreading.
