“Over the last few months, I’ve been routinely tested for COVID-19, including testing negative last Saturday, but tonight my rapid antigen test came back positive. I will be following the recommendations of my doctor and will be self-isolating at home for 10 days and notifying those I’ve been in close contact with. Thankfully, I have no symptoms and I feel well. As we all know, COVID-19 is a very contagious and deadly virus, especially because many carriers are asymptomatic” – Statement from Tillis via CNN political reporter Rebecca Buck on Twitter.
Buck adds that “Tillis was among those in attendance at the WH Rose Garden on Saturday for the Amy Coney Barrett event.”
