WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Senior US Senator from Massachusetts Elizabeth Warren, 72, says she has contracted COVID-19 despite having been vaccinated with a booster shot.
"I regularly test for COVID & while I tested negative earlier this week, today I tested positive with a breakthrough case. Thankfully, I am only experiencing mild symptoms & am grateful for the protection provided against serious illness that comes from being vaccinated & boosted," Warren said on Twitter on Sunday.
The former Democratic presidential candidate also urged Americans to get the vaccine and the booster shot as soon as possible.
