BOISE, Idaho — The Idaho Democratic Party announced on Thursday that two of its House staff members tested positive for the coronavirus.
A spokesperson for House and Senate Democrats said the staff members were tested earlier this week. One was last at the Capitol on Tuesday morning and the other left the statehouse immediately to isolate after receiving news of the positive test. Both are currently isolating.
The official added that both staff members were following physical distancing and mask guidelines while inside the capitol. Their workspaces are now being sanitized.
Idaho Democrats also said they've set up additional testing through the Legislative Services Office on Friday and Monday for those who may want or need one.
Officials did not provide any further details about the staff members or the severity of their symptoms.
