FAIRHOPE -- State Rep. Joe Faust has been hospitalized after testing positive for COVID-19, local officials said.
Faust, 80, was elected to the Alabama Legislature as the House of Representatives member for District 94, which includes the Fairhope area, in 2002. Before being elected to the Legislature, he served as a member of the Baldwin County Commission from 1996 to 2002.
Officials said last week that Faust was doing well, but additional updates were not available.
