COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - South Carolina Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette was diagnosed with COVID-19 on Friday, but is recovering in isolation with her family at home, officials said.

Evette had a sore throat and headache Thursday and was tested for the virus. She has stayed at her family's home near Greenville since noting the symptoms, said Brian Symmes, the spokesman for Gov. Henry McMaster.

“She is feeling better now," said Symmes, adding Evette plans to stay out of the public for two weeks.

Evette's positive test prompted McMaster and his wife to get COVID-19 tests, which both came back negative Sunday. It was the fifth negative test since the pandemic began for the governor and the third for his wife, Symmes said.

Best wishes to the Lt. Gov. for a speedy recovery.

Wonder if she is taking HCQ + zinc?

Sorry for the short excerpt. This is an ASS Press story.

And I’m sure she’ll be fine.

Quit the never-ending fear porn, AP. We’re over it.

She probably doesn’t even need it.

Just hyping the HCQ makes it seem worthy of hysteria.

Lots don’t take it and are fine.

Test him again tomorrow, and the day after that, and the day after that.

Dollars to donuts he tests negative half the time.

The CCP virus test is complete PCR non-science.

You’d better quarantine for two weeks and drink lots of Beano.

Really...pre-pandemic porn days, she would’ve went to work and 10 other people would’ve gotten it and it would go away in 10 days to two weeks.

Hope she has some NyQuil. It might make it tough for her to get to sleep.
