Green Party of Canada MP Elizabeth May says she has tested positive for COVID-19.
May says on Twitter that she found out on Thursday and is very sick.
She says she isolated herself when she started feeling unwell and doesn’t think she will be hospitalized.
May says she has been back in Ottawa since March 20 and the rates in the city “are crazy high.”
She says the illness is no joke and she is angry because too many people are not wearing masks.
May, the MP for Saanich-Gulf Islands, is the Parliamentary leader of the Green party.
