Stitt, a Republican, said at a press conference that he was screened Tuesday and that he feels “good”, apart from being “a little sore.” He said he will be quarantined and working from home and isolating himself from his family.
“I want to use my story to remind Oklahomans that if you’re not feeling well, we want you to be tested,” said Stitt, adding that he is not considering a statewide mask mandate as of now.
“I don’t think there has been any way at the president’s rally. Too long ago,” Stitt said.
According to the contact trace, the Oklahoma State Department of Health said Stitt did not hire Covid-19 at the rally.
Dr. Lance Frye, commissioner of the Oklahoma State Department of Health, said they don’t know exactly when Stitt was infected, but that it would have been in the past few weeks.
