Syracuse, N.Y. - Councilmember and Syracuse Mayoral Democratic candidate Khalid Bey, has COVID.
A press release states it was confirmed on August 9th and that Bey will remain in quarantine until the 24th.
Bey was not vaccinated as his medical team warned him against taking the vaccine before further studies could be done on his pre-existing condition that puts him at risk for a severe reaction.
Once he has recovered, the doctors have cleared him to be vaccinated.
