FIVE more members of Congress join AOC on the Capitol COVID list: Now 28 lawmakers have tested positive since start of December during the Omicron surge as they head back to work

Two more lawmakers announced Monday that they contracted coronavirus after four others – including Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez – announced their diagnoses over the weekend.

'I tested positive for COVID-19 yesterday,' New York Republican Representative John Katko tweeted on Monday. 'I am fully vaccinated and boosted, and am thankfully experiencing only mild symptoms. I will be voting by proxy in Washington this week and working from home as I recover. My constituent service team remains available and ready to serve.'

Republican Representative Ben Cline from Virginia tweeted on Monday: 'I took a COVID test on Saturday and the result was positive.'

'I have been vaccinated, and after consulting with my physician, I am taking all necessary precautions to isolate here at home in Virginia. Thanks to everyone for their support and assistance.'

Since the start of December, 28 members of the House and Senate contracted coronavirus as the highly-contagious Omicron variant sweeps the nation and leads to an unprecedented spike in case rates.

*** Ocasio-Cortez, 32, announced her positive diagnosis on Sunday – just days after she was pictured partying maskless at a drag brunch in Miami, Florida. *** All 28 members to test positive since the Omicron variant emerged are fully vaccinated and boosted, which is in accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines on how to best avoid infection.

Remember the good old days when vaccines actually provided immunity against disease?

Along with this, there are 30 some-odd congresscritters that have either announced retirement or just not running.

It would be interesting to match up that 30 not running, with these 28 Covidians, just to see what overlap there is, if any.

Personally, I’m not expecting to hear much from the Covidians... including AOC.

[BTW, word has it that Corona just was trying to get into AOC’s pants, the devil he is]

“’I tested positive for COVID-19 yesterday,’ New York Republican Representative John Katko tweeted on Monday. “

He is really a liberal democrat.

” You mean like the flu vaccine?” I mean polio, mumps, measles, rubella, tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis etc.

So is this gonna be the “Me too” mantra? It’s not a virus, it’s a bio-weapon.

A constitutional amendment making CONgress a part-time legislature wouldn't be a bad idea.

The more they "work", the worse it gets for everyone else.

Those are actual vaccines.
They called them flu shots because they are not vaccines, that is until recently when they wanted to lie about the Notavax.

Okay, WHY are they telling us this, one after the other? I do NOT believe it’s to encourage vaxxing. There’s something else going on here.

Wouldn’t mind seeing Schumer’s name on the list. In New York seniors don’t seem to last long. Yes. I am a bad person.
