Monaco's Prince Albert II tests positive to Coronavirus
Prince Albert II of Monaco has tested positive for
coronavirus.
The palace of Monaco announced that its ruler, Prince Albert
II, has tested positive for the new coronavirus but his health is not worrying.
Albert, 62, appeared to be the first head of state who has
publicly said he contracted the virus.
In a statement Thursday, the palace said he is being treated
by doctors from The Princess Grace Hospital, named after his U.S. actress
mother. It says Albert is continuing to work from his home office in the palace
and is in constant contact with members of his government.
In the statement, Albert urged his people to respect
confinement measures.
Albert is the second child of Princess Grace — formerly
Grace Kelly — and Prince Rainier of Monaco.
He and his wife, the former Charlene Wittstock, have twin
children.
