PC Candidate for Mount Scio Damian Follett has been diagnosed with COVID-19.
A statement issued Friday evening confirms that Follett and his family are isolating, and that contact tracing is underway.
His campaign halted in-person contact earlier this week following word that his son had been diagnosed with the virus. In a public video, Follett encouraged kindness and compassion for those affected by COVID-19.
He requests privacy at this time, as he focuses on the wellbeing of himself and his family.
