The governor of Tabasco, Adán Augusto López, sick with coronavirus

He is the second governor of Mexico to test positive for COVID-19 and had tested negative in a previous test.

The governor of Tabasco, Adán Augusto López Hernández , reported that he tested positive for COVID-19 .

The Morenista Governor stated, from his Twitter account, that he will be at his house in quarantine and observation.

The governor said he will continue to work at home “so that Tabasco can overcome this crisis.”

The Tabasco president is the second governor who falls ill with the new coronavirus , because just yesterday his counterpart in Hidalgo , Omar Fayad , confirmed that he also has it. His case has put President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and part of his cabinet under the magnifying glass, because in previous days they gave a joint press conference at the National Palace.
