(The Hill) Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem was taken to a hospital on Tuesday after having an allergic reaction, according to the department.

DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement that Noem was “alert” and recovering from the incident.

“Secretary Noem had an allergic reaction today. She was transported to the hospital out of an abundance of caution. She is alert and recovering,” DHS said in a statement.

CNN reported late Tuesday afternoon that Noem was taken by ambulance to a DC-area hospital and that she was “conscious” in the hospital and has “spoken to her security detail” and her doctor.

No additional details were provided.

Noem, 53, heads a sprawling department with roughly 260,000 employees responsible for immigration enforcement, airport security, disaster response and other responsibilities.

She has been among the more high-profile members of President Donald Trump’s cabinet, traveling extensively and maintaining a robust social media presence.
