West Hollywood Mayor John D’Amico has tested positive for COVID-19, better known as the coronavirus. As a result, staffers working for the city have been asked to leave work and head home. In the wake of this news, city facilities will undergo “immediate sanitization procedures.”
“The Mayor is taking every precaution as directed by his physician and public health directives. He is home resting and practicing an abundance of self-care. His husband is doing fine and is doing his part to quarantine at home with Mayor D’Amico,” the city of West Hollywood stated.
“To facilitate their household’s focus on wellness, the Mayor is asking for privacy at this time,” the city continued.
D’Amico joins 7,037 other residents in the United States, who have confirmed cases of COVID-19. Of the 7,038, 97 have tragically lost their lives.
As it pertains to D’Amico, two members of Congress have tested positive for COVID-19 this week. Previously, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been quarantined along with his wife. Like other politicians, D’Amico must remain quarantined until he fully recovers.
