Royal Family News – The Queen Has Covid
The palace said that the queen, “is experiencing mild cold-like symptoms but expects to continue light duties at Windsor over the coming week. She will continue to receive medical attention and will follow all appropriate guidelines.”
It has been reported that the Queen is fully vaccinated. Last year Buckingham Palace stated that both she and her late husband, Prince Philip, received their first doses of a Covid-19 vaccine in January 2021. Sadly, Philip died three months later at the age of 99. He was to have had a large 100th birthday celebration in his honor but next month the family will hold a remembrance ceremony for the Duke of Edinburgh.

The British public have been concerned over the monarch’s health since late last year when she was hospitalized overnight for an undisclosed reason. Following that, she declined several royal events leading to questions about her condition.

Charles tested positive for coronavirus in March 2020 as the pandemic first roiled the globe. At the time he was quoted as saying he’d, “got away with it quite lightly.” It was reported but officially unconfirmed that Prince William also tested positive for Covid-19 in 2020.
The Queen’s diagnosis comes just days after she completed her first in-person engagement since returning to Windsor from Sandringham where she marked the 70th anniversary of her accession to the throne and the untimely death of her father, King George VI.
