CONCORD, NH – The state Senate learned this evening that one of its members, Sen. Bob Giuda, R-Warren, has tested positive for COVID-19 after exhibiting symptoms this past Saturday, Dec. 19.

The senator is currently at home recovering.  All family members and friends that he had close contact with have been notified and advised to quarantine in accordance with the New Hampshire Division of Public Health protocols.

Because Sen. Giuda was last at the State House on December 7, which is well outside of the possible exposure window of 48 hours prior to the onset of symptoms, there is no concern for possible staff exposure. 

Reacting to Giuda testing positive, Senate President Chuck Morse said, “We take this situation very seriously.  Bob has my support and I am wishing him a very speedy recovery.”
