While there has been no word on whether Queen Elizabeth II has tested negative for COVID-19 a second time after Prince Charles’ February 10, diagnosis, The Sun reports that she is expected to be back at work by Monday, February 14, stressing that she received both initial COVID vaccine doses as well as a booster. The queen will conduct official duties from her desk at Windsor Castle and is expected to be on video calls with various dignitaries and ambassadors. She also plans to make three public engagements in the month of March.
Prince Charles, 73, and his wife, Camilla Parker Bowles, 74, have also been triple vaccinated against COVID-19, with Charles having also been infected by the virus when the pandemic first began in March 2020 as well. When Charles and Camilla received their boosters, they stressed its importance.
“We can only urge you to look at the evidence in our intensive care wards,” they said in a statement (via the BBC). “People who are unvaccinated are at least 10 times more likely to be hospitalized or die than those who have had two vaccine doses …That is why we urge everyone to get vaccinated and to take up the booster, as we have done ourselves.”
