Prince Charles, the Prince of Whales who is to heir the throne has tested positive for coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
The 71-year old Queen’s son remains in good health despite displaying mild symptoms of the viral disease.
“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,” said in the official statement from Clarence House.
