How will we use this time?’

Today, the Queen’s eldest son and heir to the throne Prince Charles was confirmed to have tested positive for the Covid-19 virus.
A royal spokesperson said, “In accordance with government and medical advice, the Prince and the Duchess are now self-isolating at home in Scotland. The tests were carried out by the NHS in Aberdeenshire where they met the criteria required for testing.
“It is not possible to ascertain from whom the Prince caught the virus owing to the high number of engagements he carried out in his public role during recent weeks.”
It has been reported that the future King is suffering from mild symptoms, while his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, does not have the virus.
