• Illness The Queen will not go to the Mariano de Cavia awards for continuing with Covid-19

  • Covid Queen Letizia, positive in covid with mild symptoms

Queen Doña Letizia returns to public work.

Felipe VI's wife tested positive for Covid last Tuesday, July 5, and although she had mild symptoms, her state of health forced her to cancel the events that she had scheduled.

It is an unusual fact, because until that moment, the Queen

had never had a 'low' work.

So this Tuesday, July 12, Doña Letizia will preside over the 5th Conference on informative treatment of disability in the media.

It is an act organized between the Fundación A La Par, by

Carmen Pardo Valcárcel

, and the Federation of Associations of Journalists of Spain (Fape).

Doña Letizia will thus combine in a single act two issues that interest her a lot:

communication

and the most

vulnerable

sectors of society.

Felipe VI's wife tested positive for covid after going to Barcelona with the rest of his family for the delivery of the Princess of Girona Awards.

Held on Monday, July 4, the Queen at that time did not show any symptoms of illness, although the next day Zarzuela

confirmed her contagion.

Queen Letizia, positive for covid with mild symptoms

It was the first time in 18 years that Doña Letizia has canceled public events due to illness.

In these almost two decades, Doña Letizia was only absent from specific acts

at the end of her pregnancy,

when the pregnancy was so advanced that it was inconvenient for her to travel.

For example, she was not at the 2005 Princess of Asturias Awards, held a week before the birth of Princess Leonor.

No casualties, three interventions

The commitment and service to Spain is above personal ailments, that is a mantra that the members of the royal families have learned.

And Doña Letizia, although she has never been made public, it is possible that in all these years

she has had some illness

, although she has not missed her commitments.

In addition to the two caesarean sections for the birth of her daughters, Queen Letizia underwent a

septorhinoplasty

in August 2018. At that time, the then-Princess waited for the summer holidays for the surgical intervention.

In addition to Tuesday, the Queen is expected to

resume her schedule as normal

.

On Wednesday she will deliver the National Culture Awards with Don Felipe and on Wednesday she will accompany the King in the State tribute to the victims of Covid and the toilets in the Royal Palace.
