Scottish Finance Secretary Kate Forbes has tested positive for coronavirus and is currently self-isolating at home.
The SNP MSP for Skye, Lochaber and Badenoch took to social media after appearing remotely on the Economy and Fair Work Committee to say she has "cold-like symptoms".
It comes nearly a month after Forbes announced she was self-isolating after "a family member tested positive" for the deadly virus.
Taking to Twitter, Forbes said: "I can confirm I’ve tested positive for Covid-19 and I’m self-isolating at home.
"Fortunately (or unfortunately!) hybrid working allows me to still appear in Parliament virtually.
"The cold-like symptoms aren’t fun but I’m incredibly relieved to be double vaccinated."
Following the news a number of MSPs took to Twitter to wish the minister well in her recovery from the virus.
Labour MSP Monica Lennon said: "Take care, Kate. Hope you are on the mend soon."
While Airdrie and Shotts MSP Neil Gray wrote on Twitter: "Take care Kate, hope you are through it quickly!"
Highland and Islands MSP Emma Roddick commented: "Sorry to hear this Kate, hope you recover fully soon. Glad the double vaccination has helped."
