Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been infected with the coronavirus.
Scott Morrison said in a statement on social media on Tuesday night that a PCR test showed positive results.
“I am following health guidelines and I am in isolation at my home in Sydney,” he said in a statement.
Wife Jenny Morrison and children tested negative for Covid-19. However, according to the rules of family communication in New South Wales, they will be in isolation for 7 days.
The Prime Minister was scheduled to attend an event at the Sydney Opera House last night. There the sails of the landmark were illuminated in the colors of the flag of Ukraine. But he did not attend after being attacked by Corona.
The Prime Minister said that he would continue his state work from isolation.
