Prime Minister Trudeau tests positive for COVID-19, for second time

Share

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he has tested positive for COVID-19, for the second time.

In a tweet , Trudeau said he鈥檒l be 鈥渇ollowing public health guidelines and isolating.鈥

Last week, Trudeau was in Los Angeles to attend the Summit of the Americas, where he met with a number of top officials, including U.S. President Joe Biden.

鈥淚 feel okay, but that鈥檚 because I got my shots. So, if you haven鈥檛, get vaccinated - and if you can, get boosted. Let鈥檚 protect our healthcare system, each other, and ourselves,鈥 the prime minister posted.

Trudeau was scheduled to speak at a Liberal donor appreciation event in Ottawa on Monday night, instead Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland will be addressing the crowd of fully-vaccinated party loyalists in his absence.

This is his second confirmed COVID-19 infection after testing positive for COVID-19 in January.

The prime minister previously reported being exposed to the virus on two occasions: In March 2020, he went into a 14-day isolation after his wife Sophie Gregoire Trudeau tested positive for COVID-19, and in late December 2021 he announced he was testing regularly and self-monitoring after some members of his staff and security detail tested positive.
