en. Ted Cruz (R-TX) announced on Friday that he is extending his self-quarantine after learning of contact with another individual who tested positive for the novel coronavirus.

My self-quarantine ended yesterday afternoon. I still have no symptoms and feel fine, and I was looking forward to taking my family out to dinner tonight, he said in a statement.
He continued:
'Unfortunately, last night I was informed I had a second interaction with an individual who yesterday tested positive for COVID-19.
On March 3, I met in my D.C. office with Santiago Abascal, the leader of the Vox Party in Spain. We met for about 20 minutes, sitting together at a conference table. We shook hands twice and took pictures together.
My understanding is that Mr. Abascal tested positive for COVID-19 last night. His staff have informed us that he was asymptomatic at the time of our meeting and that several days after our meeting he had extended interactions with another individual who has also tested positive.'
Cruz stressed that he is not feeling symptomatic but said he is extending the self-quarantine to March 17, a full fourteen days from my meeting with Mr. Abascal out of an abundance of caution.

Alright, take care of yourself, Ted.
How could he have had contact with a second person if he was in quarantine?
Come on Ted. You are sounding like a wuss.
WTF, the resemblance is uncanny!
If only she could grow a beard.
There was probably a few days after meeting the first person before that person tested positive and Cruz started his quarantine.
Which gave time to meet the second person.
That he met two that are testing positive is an indication of how dangerous it is in those political circles.
This is getting stupid. Man up, Ted, wash your hands thoroughly with hot, soapy water and go back to work.
Good think Quarantine Ted isn’t our Prez.
Thanking the good Lord, again.
This is a land of abundance of caution.
One positive - at least the GOP is showing they care about others in self-quarantining themselves.
A few Rats have done so too, but has Maria Cantwell? She should as one of her staff tested positive.
In other words, the fishing is good!
FOr all the Doctors running around on this site that think they are immune...stay tuned for what happened to this guy. I will just leave it for the news to report. Probably tomorrow.
Watch your viral loads.
Unfortunately, Cruz has bought into all the hysteria. Suppose he meets a third guy, maybe somebody whose uncle is married to a woman who has tested positive?
I love all the virtue signaling!
This entire Fake News hyped hysteria is sickening to watch!
Nobody seems to remember the Media’s blackout of H1N1 (Swine Flu) in 2009, when the Kenyan was president. Imagine that, we all survived without grocery store runs and abject panic.
The Fake News is in total control here, and they know it! They’ve created mass hysteria! Mission accomplished!
A Dem senator was exposed (forget his name), but no quarantine
I Hope he keeps the Pod Casts going.
A Dem senator was exposed (forget his name), but no quarantine

Good! Because it’s all virtue signaling, and it’s pathetic to watch!
Bingo! They have been looking for a way to crash the economy and they finally have found one. This is incredible!
