Britain's Prince Charles tests positive for new coronavirus

Everyone has it by now, some it affects more than others, some do not even notice they have it.

Although I wish him well, I bet he isn’t being “stored" on a floor next to an A&E adjacent corridor.

The 71-year-old is showing mild symptoms of COVID-19 and is self-isolating at a royal estate in Scotland

I imagine it's nothing like the estates I used to knock around in.

They should rename this website to "England Today", since this website is now predominantly domestic English news. Why should anybody, obviously other than English migrants, care about that old nobody? He is irrelevant to the rest of the world. This is not "international" news.

This is not "international" news.

Yet you felt the need to read it and comment.

Completely wrong. Everyone does not "have it" by now. Majority of tests in my region are negative

What are the chances that he is getting the Trump pills (HCC) right now, while the media cackles against the drug to keep the Trump hating fewer going? I say 100%. What the chance of this guy dieing from Corona? I say zero.

Viruses, flus, STDs affect everybody from royalty to riff-raff. It's everybody's problem. Play it safe and get well, Chucky.

No reason to get upset over a couple of UK based stories. This is an English speaking news site after all, so many reading it have some connection to the UK one way or another.

I am sure a website in Portuguese would have more stories about Brazil or Portugal than say, England, but not of much interest to an English speaking readership.

Zero. Not everything in life is a conspiracy theory.

Nippori Nick:

Zero. Not everything in life is a conspiracy theory.

No conspiracy here. Just a supply problem and concern about a panic if too large numbers of plebs suddenly start screaming for a drug that is not immedialy available in large amounts. Why do you think India just stopped the export of HCQ? And do you think the royal family stands in line at the NHS hospital or gets preferential service? Is that a conspiracy in your mind?

I sincerely wish him and other royal family members & staff all well.

Since the Prince has had enmity with the Beijing regime over human rights issues etc., it looks like the whole story might be nuanced...
