Rick Scott has coronavirus. The 67-year-old Republican Florida Senator revealed on Friday (November 20) in a statement that he has tested positive amid the pandemic, about a week after he began to self-quarantine. “After several negative tests, I learned I was positive for COVID-19 this AM.
I’m feeling good & experiencing very mild symptoms. I’ll be working from home until it’s safe for me to return to DC. I remind everyone to be careful & do the right things to protect yourselves & others,” he wrote on Twitter. “Wear a mask.
Socially distance. Quarantine if you come in contact with someone positive like I did. We will beat this together, but we all must be responsible.
