"After weeks on the front lines, Barbara Ann developed a dry cough yesterday morning, & tested positive for COVID-19 late in the afternoon. At this point, her symptoms are relatively mild.

I remain completely asymptomatic, but will work full-time from home over the next two weeks. You can all watch my final State of the City speech and budget introduction live from our kitchen Thursday night... What a weird 2020 this has been!

We will continue to be completely transparent about this moving forward & appreciate everyone doing their part to follow CDC guidelines to help slow this pandemic."
