Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) said on Thursday that he has tested positive for the coronavirus, becoming the second senator known to do so.

“I am strictly following the direction of our medical experts and strongly encourage others to do the same,” he said in a statement.

Cassidy got a coronavirus test on Thursday after being informed on Wednesday night that he had been exposed to an individual with COVID-19. His office said he was following Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines including quarantining for 14 days and notifying individuals he has been in contact with.

In late March, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) became the first senator to announce that he had tested positive for the coronavirus.
