Rand Paul has become the first US senator to test positive for the new coronavirus, the Republican lawmaker’s office said Sunday.

Paul is asymptomatic, “feeling fine and is in quarantine,” a staffer wrote on the senator’s Twitter feed.

US senators are currently negotiating a multi-trillion-dollar rescue package to help the US economy hit hard by the novel coronavirus pandemic.
