Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-MA) announced late Friday that he had tested positive for COVID-19 for more than a week after receiving his second dose of Pfizer coronavirus vaccine. A member of his staff tested positive earlier this week. Lynch received the second of two doses ahead of President Joe Biden’s inauguration on January 20. His commissioner-director wrote in a statement: “While Mr Lynch remains asymptomatic and feels good, he will place self-quarantine next week and will vote in Congress.” Pfizer told local station NBC 10 that the vaccine was needed seven days after injection to provide full protection. Prior to the inauguration, Lynch also tested negative. Rep. Lori Trahan (D-MA), a co-representative in Massachusetts, said Thursday that she also tested positive after returning to DC.
