House Small Business Committee Chairwoman Nydia Velazquez (D-N.Y.) said Monday that she has been diagnosed with a "presumed" case of the coronavirus, although she has not been officially tested.

Velazquez, who was in the Capitol last Friday, said in a statement that she began to experience symptoms of muscle aches, fever, nasal congestion and stomach upset early Sunday morning. She also said that she lost her sense of taste and smell, which is another symptom increasingly associated with the coronavirus.

She said that the House attending physician advised that neither a lab test to confirm she had the coronavirus nor seeing a doctor was necessary.

"After speaking with the Attending Physician by phone, I was diagnosed with presumed coronavirus infection. My symptoms are mild at the present time and I am taking Tylenol for fever, and isolating myself at my home," Velazquez said.
