Prince Charles’ Clarence House office says that he is so far doing fine and that both he and Camilla Parker-Bowles are keeping their distancing at their home Burnham on the Balmoral Estate in Scotland. However, it is still unknown how the prince caught the virus, seeing how he carried out a number of royal engagements and public appearances prior to the WHO making the coronavirus a global pandemic. During his last week of appearances though Prince Charles was seen welcoming people with namaste rather than a handshake.
