DUP leader Jeffrey Donaldson has said he has tested positive for Covid-19. In a posting on Twitter, he said he had received a positive result from a PCR test. "When I returned from London on Friday evening I felt a cold coming on but it has been getting worse," he said. "PCR test has now come back positive.
Close contacts will be notified. Thankfully I received my booster two weeks ago. The importance of being vaccinated cannot be overstated." He added: "Work still goes on even though I'm a bit croaky.
Sore throat is most uncomfortable symptom. I will still be having a virtual meeting with the Foreign Secretary @trussliz this afternoon on the need to remove the Irish Sea border which is reducing accessibility to medicines etc." Latest
