Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt said on Wednesday that he tested positive for the coronavirus.
Stitt, who confirmed his diagnosis a day after his test came back positive, said he feels “fine,” according to Tulsa World.
“I was pretty shocked that I was the first governor to get it,” the 48-year-old Republican added.
Stitt was in attendance at the rally held by President Trump in Tulsa on June 20, more than the 14-day incubation period, and encouraged those who were uneasy about health concerns to stay at home.
He has led a rapid reopening of his state’s economy, resisted issuing a statewide face covering mandate, and is seen rarely wearing a mask, according to the Associated Press.
Tulsa has seen recent spikes in coronavirus cases, and local health officials say the activity around the rally, including the counterprotests, may have contributed to the rise.
Stitt is currently isolating at home.
