The Queen The Kings test negative for the coronavirus but Doña Letizia will remain in quarantine
The King has been in quarantine since Monday for being in close contact with a positive for coronavirus.
Felipe VI was this Sunday, a day without an official agenda, with a pardon that this Monday has tested positive for Covid-19.
The fact of being quarantined for 10 days means that the King remained more than 15 minutes and less than two meters from that person, whose identity Casa Real has not made public.
Zarzuela sources indicate that the King had "close contact."
According to the Health Protocol for the
Early Detection, Surveillance and Control Strategy for Covid-19
, a close contact is considered to be any person who has been in the same place as a case, at a distance of less than two meters and for more than 15 minutes.
Health establishes a quarantine and surveillance for 10 days after the last contact with a confirmed case.
It so happens that the King has held two official acts this Monday.
He has received in audience in La Zarzuela the Commander of the Allied Transformation Command (SACT), General
André Lanata
, visiting Spain.
Likewise, Felipe VI has chaired at the Palacio del Pardo the Scientific Council of the Elcano Royal Institute, which already had to be postponed in May due to the pandemic.
An appointment that has been in person and online.
Given the King's situation, his schedule for the next few days has been canceled.
Queen Letizia, the Princess of Asturias and the Infanta Sofía will be able to continue with their activities as normal.
Felipe VI is not the first member of the Royal Family forced to quarantine.
The first to do so was Doña Letizia, after starring in an act with the Minister of Equality, Irene Montero, who tested positive for coronavirus.
Then, at the beginning of the school year, it was Princess Eleanor due to a positive from a classmate.
