“We’re trading places,” Guthrie told Kotb at the start of Monday’s broadcast. “I’m working from home. You’re back in the studio. You have a negative test for COVID. I just tested positive for COVID, so here we go.”

Guthrie, who is vaccinated and has received a booster shot, said she had mild symptoms and expects to be back in the studio in a few days, the “Today” show reported.

Last week Seth Meyers and Jimmy Fallon announced they had both tested positive for the virus, CNN reported.
