But he still refuses to issue a mask mandate and dodged all questions from journalists on whether he should've worn a mask. He and his health commissioner claim it's been too long for him to have gotten it from the Trump rally (where he sat near Herman Cain, both sans masks). I watched this conference in person, so this is a first hand account and interpretation.
Announced today on Zoom

He also said he was "probably asymptomatic". Why was he tested then?

He also said he was "probably asymptomatic". Why was he tested then? In addition to saying he felt a little achy, I believe he also briefly mentioned that he's been getting periodically tested. I don't recall if he said why. |

His bullshit comments about why he hadn’t made masks mandatory for the state were just asinine. Seriously stupid people are in charge of this state. 🤦🏻♀️ |

Why do you think he reported it? I’m always surprised when anti-maskers tell people they have the virus.

I will also add that a local blog tweeted last night that they'd gotten rumors of a "high ranking state official" testing positive. After the press conference today, the local NBC affiliate reporter made the comment that the station had received the same rumor yesterday, and that when they reached out to the governor's office last night for comment, the spokesman thanked them for not reporting it and told them, "the governor feels fine." Which isn't a technical lie, I suppose, if Stitt's claim to just be achy is true, but certainly is a lie of omission. Another reporter (with the ABC affiliate) also pointed out that Stitt said he got his results about 12:30 pm yesterday, but was photographed in a meeting, unmasked, with other government officials late in the afternoon yesterday. I'm rather convinced that if the local blog (which is fairly popular) hadn't posted the rumor, the governor would've lied and hidden it from everyone. Edit: chances - this is why I think he announced it. |

So irresponsible to be at a meeting unmasked after he knew the results.
He's darn lucky that his wife and six kids all tested negative, at least for now.
How do the teachers who have to go back feel about listening to that guy? I feel so sorry for the physicians and nurses in OK and all of the people who need to keep working with the public in states where the leadership is so god-awful.

I'm grateful to all the journalists, bloggers, brave news-leakers who force people to tell the truth before they do. It makes me wonder how many other political figures have tested positive and not talked about it.

Seriously stupid people are in charge of this state. 🤦🏻♀️ I am so sincerely sorry for you and everyone else living in a state with a clueless governor. The only thing I have found to be helpful there last fees months is knowing that our governor takes this seriously and cares about our residents‘ health. I just couldn’t handle living under the government of some states right now. |

I just couldn’t handle living under the government of some states right now. Thankfully our mayor is not as dumb as our governor and he has done a lot to protect us. He was the first to start shutting things down in the state and he’s the first in the state to issue the mask mandate. I do wish he’d done it sooner. |

And the restaurant he ate at the DAY BEFORE IT WAS ANNOUNCED! has had to close. The media showed pictures of him with two employees of the restaurant. How irresponsible can you be?
