Rep. Darren Soto (D-Florida), who is fully vaccinated, said Wednesday that he recently tested positive for COVID-19 and believed he had only mild symptoms because he was vaccinated.

Soto, an Orlando Democrat, wrote on Twitter that he had received treatment with monoclonal antibodies to further reduce possible symptoms.

Soto said he isolated himself and worked from home.
