Governor Gordon on Monday was informed that he had a potential exposure to an individual who tested positive for COVID-19.

The possible exposure occurred at a meeting where all attendees took precautionary measures, including the wearing of masks for the entirety of the meeting.

After he was notified, the Governor took a rapid test at the Laramie County Health Department, which came back negative for COVID-19. He is currently awaiting the results of a secondary test. As a precautionary measure, and in alignment with CDC guidance, the Governor is currently self-quarantining for 14 days from the possible exposure, which would be until November 11.
