The Democratic candidate said he received antibiotics after being diagnosed at a hospital and would be resting at home in El Paso.
Beto O’Rourke, the Democratic candidate for Texas governor, postponed campaign events in his tour across the state after he was diagnosed with a bacterial infection, he said Sunday.
“After feeling ill on Friday, I went to Methodist Hospital in San Antonio where I was diagnosed with a bacterial infection,” O’Rourke said on Twitter.
He said he received IV antibiotics and would be resting at home in El Paso “in accordance with the doctors’ recommendations.”
He said he was “sorry to have had to postpone events because of this, but promise to be back on the road with you as soon as I am able.
