Pennsylvania GOP ripped as 'reckless and irresponsible' for keeping member's COVID-19 status secret

On Wednesday, Pennsylvania GOP state Rep. Andrew Lewis announced that he had tested positive for COVID-19 on May 20.

“Out of respect for my family, and those who I may have exposed, I chose to keep my positive case private. Now that I have fully recovered and completed the quarantine as required by the Department of Health,” said Lewis. “I feel now is the appropriate time to share this information with the public and my constituents and I look forward to being a resource in sharing my experiences with COVID-19 and helping our community navigate this crisis together.”

Some Democratic state lawmakers, however, are angry, because they were not informed about the positive test result when it happened.

In other words he didn't give a shit.................this is what you would call reckless endangerment..........I would be pissed off to no end............         

So please tell us how it is anyone’s business. Ever heard of HIPPA?  Ever heard of HIV?  Can I ask someone if they have HIV?  If not, why?  Answer that question and we’ll have a debate, otherwise just MYOB.

Now that I have fully recovered and completed the quarantine as required by the Department of Health,” said Lewis.

   No Dem lawmaker was endangered, nor any R lawmaker, nor staff. Because he self-quarantined.
