WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court says Justice Brett Kavanaugh has tested positive for COVID-19. The high court said in a press release Friday that Kavanaugh has no symptoms and has been fully vaccinated since January. Kavanaugh had a routine coronavirus test ahead of Friday’s ceremonial investiture for Justice Amy Coney Barrett. The court says Kavanaugh’s wife and daughters are also fully vaccinated, and they tested negative Thursday. Kavanaugh will participate remotely from his home next week during oral arguments. The court’s new term begins Monday and the justices are returning to the courtroom to hear arguments after an 18-month absence due to the coronavirus pandemic.
