The Queen will remain at Balmoral Castle for her summer break despite a staff member recently testing positive for COVID-19.
According to the Sun, the employee was sent home on Saturday following a PCR test. A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: “We have procedures in place should a member of any team get COVID.” A source told the paper, “All the staff at Balmoral are tested for COVID daily and on Saturday this person showed up as positive. “They were sent home and the staff canteen and bar were shut.
They’re on a separate block on the estate. “Workers have been told to wear masks and to socially distance but the royals themselves are pretty much carrying on as they were.” RELATED: The Queen To Miss Out On Annual Braemar Gathering As It Gets
