Mayor, husband test positive for COVID-19

   Mayor Linda Gorton and her husband, Charlie, have tested positive for COVID-19.

   Both have had two immunization shots plus boosters. They both wear KN95 masks and practice social distancing. The Mayor tested positive this morning; Charlie tested positive last night.

   “We both have mild symptoms,” Mayor Gorton said. Most fully immunized people who get the virus have relatively mild cases.

   The Gortons will follow CDC guidelines and isolate for 5 days, and if symptoms are resolving, follow that with 5 additional days of wearing a mask when around others to minimize the risk of infecting people they encounter.
