Update (1345ET): Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky has tested positive for COVID-19, according to media reports.

The Republican senator and perennial gadfly for both his Republican colleagues and Democratic opponents, the Kentucky senator is perhaps best known for being the son of legendary Libertarian, former presidential candidate and Texas Congressman Ron Paul, as well as for an incident where one of his neighbors back in Kentucky - a doctor, no less - lost his temper and straight up dropkicked the Senator over a lawncare-inspired property beef.

At least two members of the House have also tested positive, but Paul is the first member of the Senate.

Update (1330ET): After nearly two weeks of reporting one grim record after another, Italy has finally reported a drop in new cases on Sunday. During the day before, Italy confirmed 5,560 new cases of COVID-19 and 651 new deaths. That brings the country to a total of 59,138 cases, and 5,476 deaths. That's a slower pace of increase than yesterday's report, though Italy's rate of spread is still nothing short of extraordinary, and in a few days, confirmed cases in the country will surpass China's "official" total.
