Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon will self-quarantine for up to two weeks because of possible exposure to the coronavirus, his office has said.
“Governor Gordon was informed today that he had a potential exposure to an individual who tested positive for Covid-19,” according to a press release.
While a rapid test given to the governor came back negative, they are still awaiting the results of a secondary test, the statement added.
“The possible exposure occurred at a meeting where all attendees took precautionary measures, including the wearing of masks for the entirety of the meeting,” the press release said.
Nevada governor’s office emptied again: Meanwhile, a staffer for Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak has tested positive for Covid-19 and is experiencing symptoms, according to a press release Monday from the governor’s office.
“The staff member was last in the office on Thursday, October 29, 2020, and was not symptomatic at that time,” the statement said.
The statement says the governor is not quarantining at this time because he was not found to be a “close contact” of the infected worker. Sisolak also has tested negative for the coronavirus for two consecutive weeks, according to his office.
The statement says all staff members who worked out of the capitol office will work from home as a precaution. It’s the second time the governor’s office in Carson City has had to take that step during the pandemic. A staffer at the governor’s capitol office also tested positive on October 6.
