WASHINGTON (WJTV) – United States Senator Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) said he received a positive COVID-19 test result on Friday, February 18.
“Today I received a positive test result for COVID-19. I am fully vaccinated and in good health. I will work from home for the next few days. I look forward to being back in person soon,” said Wicker.
The senator previously tested positive for COVID-19 in 2021.
