Former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway announced late Friday that she has tested positive for the coronavirus.

Conway is the latest in a cascade of people linked to the White House who have contracted COVID-19.

“My symptoms are mild (light cough) and I’m feeling fine,” she tweeted. “I have begun a quarantine process in consultation with physicians.”

She added: “As always, my heart is with everyone affected by this global pandemic.”

Conway’s announcement follows similar news from President Donald Trump, first lady Melania Trump, Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.).

Conway left the White House at the end of August, saying she needed time to focus on her family.
