Private broadcaster RMF FM cited Szumowski as confirming the news after being approached by a journalist.
Szumowski, who until recently led his country’s battle against the COVID-19 epidemic, told the journalist he does not know where he contracted the virus, RMF FM reported on its website.
Some members of Szumowski's family have also tested positive, but are all feeling good, according to the rmf24.pl website.
Szumowski stepped down as Poland’s health minister last month. He was replaced by national health service chief Adam Niedzielski.
