COLLIN COUNTY (WBAP/KLIF)- The Collin County Judge Chris Hill has tested positive for the Coronavirus.
Hill said he woke up Sunday with a mild sore throat and headache and got tested Monday out of an abundance of caution.
“I was surprised when the test came back positive, because I really didn’t feel very bad. In fact, I feel great today, but I will continue to follow the doctor’s orders and quarantine at home according to the CDC guidelines. My wife and children also feel great and do not have any symptoms, but they will also quarantine at home and monitor their health,” Hill said.
Hill said he is unsure where he contracted the virus.
“I talked to the epidemiologists and thought back to everywhere I’ve been in the last several days. I don’t recall being near anyone visibly ill and of course I have been wearing a mask when in close proximity to others,” he said.
Hill said he plans to work remotely while in quarantine, and has been in regular contact with the county staff.
