Wolf said he will be working remotely like numerous people are, according to the press release.
“As this virus rages, my positive test is a reminder that no one is immune from COVID, that following all precautions as I have done is not a guarantee, but it is what we know to be vital to stopping the spread of the disease,” Wolfe said in the statement.
“I ask all Pennsylvanians to wear a mask, stay home as much as possible, socially distance yourself from those not in your household, and, most of all, take care of each other and stay safe.” (RELATED: Trump’s Team Allegations Of Widespread Fraud Are Not Supported By Their Own Lawsuits)
