Britain’s Prince Charles Tests Positive For Coronavirus But ‘Is In Good Health’

Prince Charles has tested positive for the coronavirus, the palace announced Wednesday morning.

Prince
Charles, the Queen’s son and the first in line to the British throne,
has tested positive for coronavirus and is now self-isolating in
Scotland.

Here’s the statement from Clarence House:

“The
Prince of Wales has tested positive for coronavirus. 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. 

“The
Duchess of Cornwall has also been tested but does not have the virus.
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.”
