Wife of Georgia Senate candidate Jon Ossoff tests positive for Covid-19

The wife of the Democratic nominee for the US Senate in Georgia has tested positive for Covid-19. Jon Ossoff’s campaign says Ossof has been tested himself after experiencing symptoms of the virus.

“Last night, Jon’s wife, Dr Alisha Kramer, an OB/GYN physician at a local hospital, received a positive Covid-19 diagnosis. Dr Kramer started isolation immediately after experiencing symptoms earlier this week. Jon is also experiencing symptoms and was tested for the virus this morning. His results are pending,” said Miryam Lipper, Ossoff’s campaign communications director.

“Dr Kramer, like so many health care workers, puts herself at risk to care for Georgia’s pregnant women, delivering mothers, and newborn babies. She is a hero.

“Jon has not held or participated in an in-person campaign event in over a month and will remain in isolation until medical professionals clear both him and Dr Kramer.
