South Carolina governor tests positive for COVID-19 after wife's diagnosis
South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster (R) tested positive for COVID-19 late Monday, just days after his wife was diagnosed with the coronavirus.
The South Carolina governor announced his positive test result on Tuesday, saying he received it during "routine testing due to coming into close contact with the COVID-19 virus." McMaster said he plans to isolate for the next 10 days in accordance with federal and state guidelines.
McMaster has developed "mild symptoms" including a cough and slight fatigue, his office said. He is scheduled to receive the monoclonal antibody treatment Tuesday as a preventative measure.
