Jared Polis has tested positive for the coronavirus. Polis and his partner, Marlon Reis, both have COVID-19 and are asymptomatic, the governor said in a statement Saturday night, Nov. 28, 2020.

The state has been hit with a substantial spike in COVID-19 cases. One in 41 residents are believed to be contagious.“It doesn’t matter who you are or what you do, no one is immune from this virus,” Polis said in his statement. “Now is the time to be more cautious than ever before. There is more of the virus circulating across the country, including in Colorado, now than there even was in the spring.

He said he will continue to serve the state while isolating himself. He urged residents to wear masks and keep 6 feet apart in public. For most people, the new coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough that clear up in two to three weeks. For some — especially older adults and people with existing health problems — it can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia, and death.

Wait, a man that waves like that is gay?

does anyone remember when .. -agency x said 'airborne ? it is. now search 'animal mutation , NO BUENO.. conservatives.. stop w. your spread shareholders crap.

the governor is a gay man? omg lol

NO ONE BELIEVES WHAT YOU ARE REPORTING

If only they wore mask they never would have gotten it masks will save us all just ask anyone in L A they are done with lockdowns because they had mask mandated

So much for following the science and facts. These Dems can't follow their own precautions.

AP really needs to do a better job of moderating the comments of their tweets. It’s sad how many bots and liers are found here

What was the cycle rate of their PCR tests?

Stats are important. Not a big deal

What a terrible shame. I hope he and the first gentleman recover quickly and stay without symptoms. I hope they’ll be more careful where possible going forward, and I hope this encourages Coloradans to stay safe and follow procedure.

Stay well! Best wishes

thanks for this news

Where the hell have I been... Jared is gay?

I thoughts Libs were immune to it?

Original estimates, I think, were probably right. 40-60% of the planet is going to have this thing when all is said and done.
