Congressman Clay Higgins of Lafayette confirmed on social media Sunday that he, his wife and son are sick with COVID-19.
Higgins is a Republican who represents the 3rd Congressional District of Louisiana and a Donald Trump loyalist.
Rumor spread across Facebook starting Friday that Higgins, his wife and son were ill with COVID. On Sunday, Higgins wrote on his Facebook page that he and his wife, Becca, had COVID in January 2020. This round, he wrote, his son also is sick and the battle "is far more challenging."
Higgins referred to virus that causes COVID-19 as "the CCP biological attack weaponized virus," repeating an unsubstantiated Trump allegation that the virus was created by China and possibly released on purpose.

Prayers up

I wasn’t aware that we were testing for Covid in January 2020.
The guy might have thought he had it then.
I’m sure some people did. But I’m also sure some people who though they had it then really just had the flu or a bad cold.
I think Tipllub is one of the good guys, as are you.
You can tell for sure with anti body testing
This is a New Orleans newspaper writing a story about a local conservative congressman. Is there some gay website with that name that you’re familiar with?
The investors and co-creaators of this bioweapon need to be brought to justice. Even vigilante justice. What the hell is the US government doing, cooking up new deadly viruses in Communist Red China to release on our own people?
And how did they know they had it in January 2020, when there was no testing?
But does it say in the article that the guy had been tested for antibodies between his two supposed Covid bouts?
I will agree that anyone who had some bad cold or another from late 2019 on should consider getting an antibody test.
Prayers up. I hope he had a SARS-CoV-2 antibody test to determine whether he actually had COVID-19 in January 2020. While there’s a chance he did, there’s likely a better chance that it was some other viral infection.
Wonder if they’ve had the vaccination?

A previous FP post from earlier today but the link I have doesn’t say FreeRepublic.
IIRC, the first documented case in the US was a traveler from Wuhan in late January 2020, which makes sense.
Well hell, there goes the theory that if you’ve had it you have the anti-bodies to prevent from getting it again. wtf?
Yes, but back then, your average person who was not sick enough to be in the hospital was not being tested.
The Flatten the Curve stuff and testing and quarantines didn’t start until around St. Patrick’s Day.
Stupid
His whole tribe did not get sick twice ...
And he wouldn’t know what he was sick from in January 2020...
Jeez max, you sound so immature calling someone a "newbie." You're like a sophomore picking on freshmen on their first day of high school. And your comment about "faggot websites" is just so weird. The FR is a respected, conservative website, not a bathroom stall for posting adolescent graffiti.
The Red Cross is currently testing all blood donations for antibodies so that’s as good a way as any to find out for sure.
