Gavin Newsom tests Positive for COVID-19

by The AV Times Staff • May 29, 2022

Gov. Gavin Newsom at an event at the San Francisco Botanical Garden on Friday, May 27, 2022, to sign the pledge to help fight climate change.

Gov. Gavin Newsom has tested positive for COVID-19.

Newsom plans to continue to work remotely, and will remain in isolation at least through June 2 and “until he tests negative,” his office said.

The governor has also received a prescription for Paxlovid — an antiviral that his office said has been proven effective against COVID-19 — and will begin his five-day regimen immediately.

“This AM, I tested positive for COVID-19 and am currently experiencing mild symptoms. Grateful to be vaccinated & for treatments like Paxlovid,” Newsom tweeted at 3:30 p.m. Saturday, May 28. “I’m following health guidelines and will be isolating while I work remotely. Wishing everyone a safe & healthy Memorial Day weekend.”

Newsom’s office added that he has received two booster shots, including as recently as May 18.

    And I like the “known Trump supporter”. “KNOWN”. That sounds so cool, like I sneak around supporting Trump and everyone should know to avoid me, like a child molester, or disease spreader, LOLOL. I love to poke the bear.

        Nah, my handle was Trumpist#1 for years. “Known” as the resident racist, nazi, and mean evil bast@rd. Despised by all, and blamed for Russian collusion, Trump peeing on prostitutes, etc. So I wasn’t outed.

        I’m a closet Trumpist no more. I shed my hesitance, put on my MAGA hat and proudly proclaim to the world……..uh oh, the townspeople are at my house with torches and pitchforks.

          You know I’m just kidding about Biden. I wouldn’t vote for him if they waterboarded me, or worse, made me kiss Hillary.

    It’s rare to find anyone as hypocritical, disingenuous, narcissistic and elitist as Gruesome Newsom. He’ll run for president someday. If he ever wins, I’m moving to Australia.

        If you read my posts enough, even a dolt like you might learn how to capitalize correctly when you struggle to write English. I know, it’s difficult, right?
