Yesterday, Sacramento Sheriff Scott Jones tested positive for Covid-19 after exposure at work. He is one of several California Sheriffs who refused to enforce state restrictions on COVID 19.
Sacramento Sheriff Press Release:
He was tested when he developed symptoms late last week after a workplace exposure to an employee that later tested positive.
Sheriff Jones' symptoms started last Friday and were mild, including a fever, congestion, light-headedness, and a headache. He started feeling better Sunday morning, and today has almost no remaining symptoms. He is following the recommendations of health officials and will be quarantining. His entire immediate family has been tested and is awaiting results, and will also be quarantining.
The Sheriff is only one of dozens of Sacramento Sheriff's Office employees who, despite rigorous institutional safety practices and following all recommended personal safety protocols, have contracted the virus while performing their essential duties protecting and serving their community or, as in the Sheriff’s case, supporting and interacting with those dedicated women and men.
