Prince Charles test positive to corona virus

Prince Charles

London; 25 March 2020 (UMM): Prince Charles has tested positive for Coronavirus.

Clarence House said: "He has been displaying mild symptoms but otherwise remains in good health and has been working from home throughout the last few days as usual."

"In accordance with Government and medical advice, the Prince and the Duchess are now self-isolating at home in Scotland.

"The tests were carried out by the NHS in Aberdeenshire where they met the criteria required for testing.

“It is not possible to ascertain from whom the Prince caught the virus owing to the high number of engagements he carried out in his public role during recent weeks." Clarence House added.

According to The Sun, Prince Charles met with Prince Albert of Monaco earlier this month, who later tested positive for coronavirus.

He had been avoiding shaking hands with members of the public at a number of events recently, instead choosing to use the namaste gesture.

Charles last saw the Queen 'briefly' on March 12 and she remains in good health, Buckingham Palace confirmed, reported The Sun.
