Missouri Gov. Parson and his wife test positive for COVID-19

Missouri Gov. Mike Parson confirmed Wednesday evening that he and his wife tested positive for the coronavirus, but he said that they were both “fine.”

First Lady Teresa Parson tested positive for COVID-19 earlier Wednesday, after she started experiencing symptoms. The governor was then reportedly tested as a precaution.

“Myself and the first lady are both fine,” Parson said in a video posted to his Facebook Wednesday. “I was tested, the preliminary results have come back as a positive result.”

He said that he wasn't experiencing any symptoms.

The Republican governor said that he and the first lady of Missouri would be taking the necessary precautions by staying in their residences and distancing themselves from others.

Parson will reportedly stay in the governor's mansion, while his wife self-isolates at their home in Bolivar, located in southwest Missouri.

An event scheduled for Wednesday, along with a debate with Democratic State Auditor Nicole Galloway on Friday, were immediately postponed after Teresa Parson’s results.

"All official and campaign events have been canceled until further notice," Parson's office announced Wednesday.

”Myself and the first lady are both fine...”

Gack! That’s worse than COVID. He’s old enough to know better, too.

It’s okay. It’s the tax payer-funded Governor’s Mansion. So he’s not allowed to personally enjoy his stay there. He can only experience any enjoyment of the premises vicariously through the mansion’s staff.

He's an incumbent repub and already won the primary so he doesn't really need to campaign.

So what, Ohio Gov tested positive then had more tests and was found to be negative. Lot of false positives. Hope they will have many more tests.

I really wonder if tests are pre-infected to keep COVID going through election.

I do believe if Biden wins, COVID will disappear.
