Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg has tested positive for the new coronavirus.

According to WPTV-Chan. 5, Aronberg sent an email informing his staff of his diagnosis in Monday.

“Dear Team: Please take this pandemic seriously, as it continues to spread like wildfire. I know this personally, because I just tested positive for COVID-19. I am one of the fortunate ones, as I have relatively mild symptoms and can continue to work a normal schedule from home while quarantined,” Aronberg wrote, according to the television station.

A vocal proponent for wearing a mask and following social distance guidelines, Aronberg said his diagnosis has made him even more motivated to continue imploring people to wear a mask.

“Although I have tried to be vigilant about wearing a mask, social distancing and hand washing, I am often out in public and I live in a building with shared elevators. My diagnosis has made me more motivated than ever to continue imploring people to wear a mask, as it is about protecting others. It’s about loving our neighbors as ourselves. I also urge everyone to get tested, even if you have no symptoms. Many people who spread this virus are asymptomatic.”

A good man. Still relatively young, so hopefully not at high risk.

Unfortunately it's getting really, really bad down here.

1. I hope he recovers and continues to fight the good fight, we need him here in South Florida.

I remember right after Trumpy won the election, he and the wife split up because of him.

A former NFL cheerleader’s split from her state attorney husband is described as the “Trump Divorce,” according to an unusual press release from the woman’s PR firm. The release notes that Dave Aronberg, the state attorney for Palm Beach County in Florida, is a Democrat, and describes his wife, Lynn Aronberg, a fomer Miami Dolphins cheerleader, as “a staunch Republican and supporter of President Donald Trump” who “said she felt increasingly isolated in the marriage.”
