Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine tests negative in second COVID-19 test after initial positive result. A statement from DeWine's office said the Republican governor underwent a different type of test later on Thursday and tested negative after testing positive earlier in the day just before he was to meet with President Donald Trump. The state's first lady, Fran DeWine, also tested negative, as did staff members. Ref. USAToday.
Makes you wonder about the accuracy of all the testing being done. Also, how convenient to be negative just before the president gets there otherwise it would a no go.
