TRACKING___An organizer of a North Carolina group calling on the state to ease its coronavirus restrictions was unable to attend two rallies because she tested positive for the disease, a report said.
Audrey Whitlock, who administers the Facebook page of ReOpen NC, was under quarantine for two weeks ending Sunday after testing positive for coronavirus, according to news station WFAE.
âI remained in isolation/self-quarantine at my home per the direction of my county health department. I have not attended any events for ReOpen NC,â Whitlock told the outlet.
While the organizer was in isolation, the group held two rallies in Raleigh — the state capital demanding North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper speed up plans to lift the stay-at-home order, which is now in effect until May 8.
At last weekâs demonstration, more than 100 mainly unmasked protesters crammed together in defiance of social distancing guidelines, the report said.
