Vaccinated Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry tests positive for virus
Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry tested positive Tuesday for COVID-19.
Henry, who is fully vaccinated, said he'll work from home and communicate daily with the deputy mayor's office and city division heads.
“I am very grateful to have been vaccinated, as my symptoms are mild,” Henry said on Twitter.
Henry is one of at least three local elected officials who have tested positive for the virus since the pandemic began last year, joining New Haven Mayor Steve McMichael and Fort Wayne City Councilman Tom Freistroffer.
Henry's announcement came the same day the Indiana Department of Health announced 2,726 additional state residents have been diagnosed with COVID-19 and 29 more patients have died from the virus.
