Rep. Loudermilk Quarantining After Positive Coronavirus Test

CANTON, GA — U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk, who represents Georgia’s 11th District including portions of Cherokee and Bartow counties along with Marietta, has tested positive for the coronavirus, his office said Tuesday.

Loudermilk was tested late last week, after finding out he had come in contact with someone who tested positive for the coronavirus. He tested positive and is currently quarantining.

"I’m quarantining at home in Georgia, with mild symptoms, but I look forward to getting back to my full legislative duties as soon as possible," Loudermilk said in a statement.
