Queen Elizabeth II tests positive for COVID

Thoughts are with the Queen, and hope she gets through this unscathed.

At 95, Queen Elizabeth II is venerable. it would be wise for the nation to prepare.

Sorry. fingers crossed and my prayers.

Bugger that! All the best to her on her speedy recovery.

Offering sincere thoughts & prayers for Queen Elizabeth. Less than one year she bid “Farewell” and laid to rest her dear Prince Philip. God Save the Queen!

yes zichi indeed, unexpected shocked.

Camilla, Charles and HRH-all joined the club.

Everyone will get this, and almost everyone is OK with it. At her age, she is in a high-risk group, but on the other hand she has the best medical care possible on this planet, so she will be OK.

Venerable or vulnerable, spelling aside, it is always best at reaching 95, the risks being clear to prepare for the worse, anything less is a bonus.

My daughter tested positive last night. Seeing that everyone else including the Queen has caught it somehow eases the worry.

We must remember, Queen Elizabeth II is also a mother, a grandmother and a great grandmother. Thoughts, prayers and strength to those family members who surround her now. 

Also, wishing your daughter a speedy recovery and the rest of the family remain heathy @nandakandamanda 11:23pm.

I cared for my J grandma during the worst phase of this pandemic,

Grandma was vulnerable and frail and passed away.

Up until the last moment I witnessed for the first time as life ebbed away, it was peaceful.

If prepared one can mourn.

That is all I am suggesting.

God best Her Majesty The Queen

Why on earth is she still carrying out light duties, as Yahoo puts it?

She's 95 years old.

Ignoring the situation with the effectiveness of the vaccine, can we all just agree no matter what, shes had "a good innings" as the brits like to say.

You're not allowed to be shocked and saddened when someone that age gets sick or worse.

Of course. But if she dies while she still tests positive for Omicron, she will be counted as another "Covid death". That is the paradigm we have now.

CoVid is a major destroyer, it knows no boundaries or classifications. It took my uncle's life, some of my friends and cohorts and survivors I know have told me it's the worst feeling in the world. It's no conspiracy and it's no joke. Bozo, the Trump cult, those CoVid truckers being a major P.I.T.A. for everybody in Ottawa need to take heed. Any and/or all of them may be NEXT. This is no time for fooling.

Omicron is everywhere and has provided more immunity than vaccines according to Bill Gates.

it would be wise for the nation to prepare.

Prepare that nation for what? The death of a doddering old reactionary who has been a massive burden on tax payers for 95 years? Most people will justifiably celebrate her death.

Maybe a small handful of people will celebrate, while 99.99% of people (whether they agree with monarchy or not) will be saddened by her death and regard it as mature adults do.

Happy Day

Omicron is everywhere and has produced more deaths than vaccines, also according to Bill Gates.

Why on earth is she still carrying out light duties, as Yahoo puts it?

Why not? She only has mild symptoms and still has to do official paperwork as head of state. She still gets a Red Box everyday to deal with.

Godspeed!

The palace said the queen, who has been fully vaccinated and had a booster shot, would continue with “light” duties at Windsor Castle over the coming week.

You have to admit, she's still pretty tough. Not Betty White tough, but good in her own way.

I wonder how that happened. Not great at her age. Get well soon.

Trying to find in the article what the Queen catching CoVid has to do with what you mentioned. Please help me out.

I'm sure she'll be fine. They'll give her medicines that are off-limits to regular Brits for no good reason, take a few days to recover, and she'll be back in action again soon.

The virus is no respecter of rank, but rank does guarantee the best medical care. Bereavement is more life-threatening since there's no medication for a broken heart syndrome.
