Higgins is the second congressman to test positive in the past week. Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Fla., tested positive July 19 despite getting vaccinated, saying in a statement that he was experiencing mild symptoms while quarantining.
The recent positives in Congress appeared amid a nationwide increase in cases. They spiked over 50% in a week just days ago, which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has said is fueled by the spread of the more contagious delta variant.
