Labour’s Rachel Maskell met with the minister last Thursday.

Ms Dorries later confirmed on Tuesday she had tested positive for Covid-19.

Ms Maskell tweeted she had been advised by NHS111 to self-isolate, but that she was “asymptomatic”.

She added: “It is so important that we all follow all public health advice.

“I’m absolutely fine, obviously it’s frustrating because there are things I want to get on with.

“I’m just planning on making more phone calls, more working online. I’m not going to be bored, put it that way.”
