News of the Queen testing positive for COVID-19 does not come as a surprise since there was a possibility that she could have been exposed by the virus during one of her weekly meetings with Prime Minister Boris Johnson who tested positive an hour ago, according to UCR.
Royal Palace confirms Queen Elizabeth tests positive for coronavirus.
Buckingham Palace revealed the monarch held a face-to-face with Mr Johnson on March 11.
Her health, the palace added, remains good and stable though she has shown mild symptoms of the novel coronavirus.
In a brief statement, the palace said, “HMQ has also tested positive and is currently self-isolating at Windsor Castle. The Queen came into contact with the PM on the 11th March and is following all the appropriate advice with regards to her welfare”.
We will be sharing constant updates of the Queen’s welfare with the public in good fate. That will be all for now.”
On Wednesday, it was announced that Prince Charles, the heir to the British throne, had tested positive for the coronavirus after showing mild symptoms. His office said that he was self-isolating at a royal estate in Scotland.

… Quite unfortunately, the severity and sensitivity of this news made a lot of media houses to steer clear.
Some reported it, Even TVC had it as major headline…
However, the palace is obviously not making it public and for that singular fact…….. This news remains unsubstantiated.
