South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster tested positive for the CCP virus, just days after his wife received a positive diagnosis, his office said in a statement Tuesday.
McMaster, 73, was notified Monday evening after a “routine testing due to coming into close contact with the COVID-19 virus.” The Republican governor is “experiencing mild symptoms with a cough and slight fatigue” while his wife, Peggy, is asymptomatic, McMaster’s office said. It is unknown when and how they contracted the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, which causes the COVID-19 disease.
