The city of Jackson issued the following statement.
A PCR test confirms Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba has contracted
COVID-19. The Mayor had the test conducted Tuesday after testing positive from a home test that morning.
He said Wednesday morning he was feeling better after experiencing some fatigue on Tuesday.
Despite at home in quarantine, the Mayor is available by phone and continues to be involved in all important City business.
There have been no
reports of similar cases in the Mayor’s administration. So far, over 91
percent of all City workers have proven they received both vaccinations.
Mayor Lumumba released the following statement Wednesday:
“Good afternoon. I wanted to provide residents an update on my recent status. I did test positive for COVID-19 on a separate PCR test. I’m currently at home following quarantine guidelines. I will be periodically tested in the days ahead. I’d like residents to know that I’m feeling OK and expect to return to work shortly.
We ask - as we always have - that residents do as much as they can to stay safe. You can still contract the virus despite your best intentions. It’s essential to make sure your chance of serious illness is as low as possible.”

More pressers about his Covid symptoms than the rampant murder wave going on in the city. #perceptionofleadership
My money is on he never actually got vaccinated, but claimed that he did, thus the reason for testing at home. Baby chowke wouldn't lie, would he? Right?
Tough thing you're going through Mayor. Stay positive!
Fake wishes
Fake Jacksonian with a fake name. Is anyone here aware that his father was involved in the FBI/JPD raid that got police killed and wounded. Bennie was apparently there as well. Home grown terrorists.
This what he gets for going to a booty club in Atlanta. He could have gotten something else.
P.O.S.
Not true. Neither Chokwe nor Bennie was involved in the shooting. Chokwe was part of the braintrust of the RNA, a talker not a foot soldier. Bennie was an outside supporter not a fighter. Everyone involved with the RNA was not involved in the police ambush, just as every police officer was not involved. Do not spread untruths. The truth is bad enough.
So very glad the Boy Wonder Mayor is not sneezing anymore,
(and over his common cold symptoms).
I think Rachel Maddow, or someone at MSNBC interviewed Maggie Wade
about this breaking national news story last night.

Never knew, so I googled. Thanks. To me, it seems like the FBI raid was the turning point of his life.
Drink plenty of water and when you cant breathe go to the ER. Please tell them upon arrival that since the first three shots didnt work you'd like another. Dont forget to remind everyone that the failure of the mRNA injections to prevent your illness and infection is attributable to the people who didnt take it!
Thank the Lord. What would our poor city do without him at the helm, guiding us through all our turmoil?
Besides the record breaking homocides that he has worked tirelessly to solve, we have to take the one remaining thing in the city that is working and issue a new RFP to see if it can be put on par with the rest of our city services. Who would want us to have a failing school, a failing zoo, a failing water service, a failing sewer service, potholed streets throughout without making sure that our garbage collection service is also put into equal position.
If our exaulted leader is at home (whichever home he chooses this week) sick, who would be there to lead us down the correct path?

Sorry, I don't remember the raid to which you refer. Please tell us more so it can be googled.
Thanks.
Wish we could say the same for Jackson
Throngs of teary eyed citizens put their Christmas activities aside to surround their beloved mayor's home praying around the clock for his recovery and for his wave of reassurance from a window...except that they can't get near or see it for the wall.
6:47: you sound just like defenders of the Mafia.
This what the common cold does. Don't worry my little ones, we will survive as we have for over 100,000 years. To all, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. See you again in 365.

KF at 9:43 No sir. I never defend a non-truth no matter who is involved. There was an investigation and a trial, which should not be news to you. People were tried and convicted and neither Chokwe nor Bennie was charged with shooting anybody or being present at the scene. The RNA did not plan the "raid" It was planned and initiated by the police or FBI. So how does it relate to the Mafia. If you have information to the contrary please publish. Otherwise....
