Yup, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has tested positive for Covid.
From the Texas Tribune -
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott tests positive for COVID-19
Gov. Greg Abbott tested positive Tuesday for COVID-19, according to his office.
Abbott, who is fully vaccinated, is not experiencing any symptoms and is isolating at the Governor's Mansion, spokesperson Mark Miner said in a statement. He is getting Regeneron's monoclonal antibody treatment.
As the story states, Abbott is vaccinated, but what about the folks he exposed?
From the same story -
Abbott has kept up public appearances in recent days. He spoke Monday night at what he called a "standing room only event" in Collin County, later tweeting photos of him addressing a maskless crowd. His campaign tweeted video of him mingling with the crowd, taking photos.
The Collin County event was organized by the Heritage Ranch Republican Club. Neither the club nor Abbott's office immediately responded to requests for comment on the event.
Less than three hours before his diagnosis was announced Tuesday afternoon, Abbott tweeted pictures of a meeting with guitarist Jimmie Vaughan. The musician's team said in a statement Tuesday evening that "Jimmie and family have tested negative and are doing fine."
At least he's ready to attend a Ted Nugent concert.
1. Wear a damn mask.
2. Get vaccinated.
