DETROIT (FOX 2) - Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan has tested positive for COVID-19. He's experiencing mild symptoms.
Duggan said in a Facebook post that he took a COVID-19 test Sunday morning that read a positive result.
"I'm really glad I got the booster shot. The symptoms I have are mild - much like an average cold. Fortunately, my wife Sonia has tested negative," he said.
Duggan said he originally woke up with a cough and took an at-home Covid test on Saturday. The result came back negative - but he chose to stay home.
The cough persisted Sunday morning, prompting him to take another test.
It's the first time Duggan has been confirmed positive with the virus.
COVID-19 cases have trended down in recent months following the country's surge with the omicron variant.
The state reported another 1,661 cases over a two-day period Friday.
