One of the founders of ReOpen Maryland, a movement that pressured that state's governor to end his stay-at-home order, says he has COVID-19.

"I told you guys I wasn't feeling really well. I crashed later in the day, I had to go to the emergency room. I thought I was actually having a stroke but it turns out I have COVID," he said."Here we are at the end of June and I get it. It really doesn't make sense.

Walters said his wife and son were being tested for the virus. He did not immediately respond to a request for comment."If you think you had it ... don't make that assumption to the point where you're being less prudent about how you're behaving," he said."The challenge with this, all the symptoms for everybody are completely different.". Walters helped organize rallies in the state demanding an end to the order.

"We are committed to peaceful, law-abiding advocacy for public health measures that respect Marylanders' civil rights, economic well-being and educational access," afor the group reads."We support immediate, responsible reopening of our state's business, educational and religious institutions." Hogan shared a news article on his Facebook page about Walter's COVID-19 diagnosis, writing that anyone participating in protests should"continue to take all precautions to reduce the risks of spreading the coronavirus."

"Our health experts are strongly encouraging anyone who attended a demonstration or mass gathering to immediately get tested for coronavirus, and they are also advised to avoid contact with vulnerable populations," the governor wrote.

The emergency room should’ve sent him home and save their resources for someone else.

🤪

Karma is a bitch 😂

It's called karma.

Karma

Good for him. .

And he won't do any tracing!!! They need to put laws on the books that'll make it a felony!!

As will Anyone refusing to use safe practices. They should not be allowed to take up resources in hospitals and their insurance company/government should refuse to pay for their treatments.They asked for it they got it.COVIDIOTS WearADamnMask StayHomeSaveLives WashYourHands

Trump's supporters are cheering for coronavirus and that they want it to end America.

Tell us fellow would you still advise for reopening or are you still stupid

Tell me if he dies

I’m sorry he made a very bad choice.

Karma

Awww! Tots and pears to Tim.

😂

They even have their own tee shirts- that’s serious but not as serious as being in the ICU with organ failure from Covid.

Haha haha... twat.

these dopes listened to our leader who is not a doctor or scientist that the virus would just go away when it heats up. now please listen to the experts... wear a freaking mask and keep everyone healthy until we have a vaccine (hopefully)

Nobody said that reopening a state guaranteed zero new cases. Death rates are significantly down. Report that as well.

HE NEEDS TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND THAT MEANS MAKING PEOPLE DO WHAT IS RIGHT AND DON'T WORRY ABOUT GETTING REELECTED JUST DO IT

I know I shouldn’t think it’s funny, but I do.

...this is totally irresponsible unless y’all can corroborate their accusations. Otherwise, do not report speculatively.

Karma is real!

🤷🏻‍♀️

Hopefully all strong healthy people will get virus and recover . When I kid there was no vaccine for chickenpox . my mother found somebody whose children had chickenpox and took us all over there so we would be exposed during the summer so that we wouldn't miss any school

big deal, did matt lauer tell you to report this?

Thoughts and prayers for him 😉. I’m sorry medical staff had to risk their health to treat him. So many of the people in that photo not wearing masks. Just stupid.

Karma sometimes...is a...

Great, now open that big dirty bitch back up.

It's not nice but that's karma. I hope he recovers and has no complications. realDonaldTrump VP GOP

Karma!

some more of his followers..how stupid can one be..!!he doesn't care about you fools..666

Oops

Everyone Please Stay Home!!

Why wasn’t this covered by MSM?

But, but, but, the President said it was okay not to wear a mask if you didn't want to. Of course, the President lied about how important it is to wear one.

And the hypocrite won’t allow contact tracing. He controls who knows and who doesn’t. He has power of life and death. What every growing narcissist needs. The antimaskers are high on everyone else’s risk.

Ha ha!

Shocking!

How many 'peaceful protesters' from the ongoing months long rioting have it though?

rosierifka

Unless he dies from covid it is not really a rebuke of his message or even news worthy.

Yep hope he has infected his family as well

You mean it its not a fake virus. People can actually get sick. Thank god for the workers at the ER who took care of him. Wear a mask!

Thoughts and prayers

Too fucking bad!!!

We're all going to get it.

I'd rather he have a prison sentence.

good. karma

Florida is seeing Covid-19 cases skyrocket among young peopleMonths ago, as the coronavirus was first spreading across the country, public health officials warned of the heightened risk it posed to older populations and those with underlying health conditions. You looked on the streets lately? Let's say, responsibility is one of the concepts today's youth have not the firmest grasp of... decades of 'liberal' education has made sure of that. We can only be happy that this bug isn't as bad as it's made out to be. Hey CNN. I’ve been watching all morning and you haven’t covered Biden!!! He is running for POTUS. Give him AIR TIME!!! Would we not want the young people to develop a herd immunity? Let us get it now and use social distance from those who are elderly and immune deficient?

Austin Mayor on whether hospitals can handle new influx of COVID patientsAustin, Texas, Mayor Adler on spiking COVID-19 cases: “We need everybody – this is crunch time for us. We need everybody to religiously wear their masks and to social distance to see if we can get off that trajectory.' We all knew that there would be spikes when we are opening our country! What they fail to tell you is that there are more testing than any other country and most people that have it have no symptoms! The death rate is way down so spreading fear libs doing it for political gain!💥 If a stay at home order was imposed, you wouldn't have to worry about social distancing. If Abbott would do his job, no city in the state of TX would have to worry about it. But....what about the god given right to breathe and ignore science of the MAGA patriots?
