U.S. Representative for Louisiana's First District Steve Scalise is beginning a period of self-quarantine.

On Wednesday, Scalise announced the quarantine saying he will work remotely after meeting with U.S. Representative Mario Diaz-Balart of Florida, who has tested positive for COVID-19.

Scalise says he is currently experiencing no symptoms associated with the virus but will avoid contact with others under the guidelines issued by the CDC.

Diaz-Balart is the first member of congress to have tested positive for the illness.
