Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has said he will self-quarantine and be tested for coronavirus after mingling with the Brazilian President and his infected aide at Mar-a-Lago last weekend.
President Donald Trump will learn on Friday whether Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has tested positive for the coronavirus, according to reports out of Brazil, after the two men dined together at Mar-a-Lago on Saturday night and shook hands.
Bolsonaro was checked for the disease after his aide Fabio Wajngarten tested positive for it but South Carolina senator Graham said Thursday he doesn't recall touching the leader or the infected staff member.
'Senator Graham was at Mar-a-Lago last weekend. He has no recollection of direct contact with the President of Brazil, who is awaiting results of a coronavirus test, or his spokesman who tested positive,' Graham's office said in a statement.
'However, in an abundance of caution and upon the advice of his doctor, Senator Graham has decided to self-quarantine awaiting the results of a coronavirus test. This is a precautionary measure. He will continue to work from home.'

They were seeing patients in the 40s in Italy but no list of their genetics. Could have been Chinese.
What about our president?
I would think he has been tested at least once by now.
Trump may not want to keep talking about it, but people will soon be asking.
That (quarantine of Manhattan) doesn’t happen until next week...
Oh sheesh...Please let it be NO
Trump very likely had more interaction with him than the aide
One down, 534 to go.
Anyone who has been out of their hermit’s cabin in the deep woods is now at risk. I wonder if the people on the space station are okay.
