People: Prince Albert Did Not Feel Completely Well 8 Months after Testing Positive for COVID-19

Prince Albert of Monaco has opened up about his experience with the novel coronavirus which he tested positive for in March. The monarch admitted to having symptoms even after leaving isolation.

Prince Albert of Monaco tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this year and was in self-isolation for two weeks. Months later, he is opening up about his experience with the virus.

Prince Albert revealed that he had bouts of sudden fatigue even long after he was out of quarantine. He explained that when he returned home after the two weeks of self-isolation, he still had a cough and soon started experiencing different symptoms.

He described the initial stage of the virus as a mild case but added that the difficult symptoms like intermittent fatigue came after he tested negative. Prince Albert said:

"Immediately after my quarantine, I felt better, but I still didn't feel quite right."

The Prince went further, revealing that the fatigue happened about two to three times a week and it lasted till June. According to Prince Albert, the fatigue he felt was similar to what people feel when they work too much or are just recovering from an illness.

Prince Albert noted that Monaco would maintain its social distancing guidelines.

Amid the lockdown, the Prince has kept himself busy with things he has not done in a long time, including reading some books and magazine articles. Prince Albert was diagnosed with COVID-19 back in March.

At the time, the monarch revealed that he felt okay except for a slight fever, cough, and runny nose. Considering his previous health history of fighting pneumonia, the Prince explained that he knew he was susceptible to have complications.

He added that even though older people had more chances of getting infected with the novel coronavirus, it could affect younger people as well.

In November, Monaco celebrated its National Day. In adherence to the COVID-19 social distancing guidelines, the celebration happened without crowds, fireworks, and the royal family's traditional wave.

While the celebration did not have any of its regular happenings, Prince Albert's twin girls with his wife Princess Charlene put on quite a show.

The 6-year-olds, Princess Gabriella and Prince Jacques, adorably saluted guards while also leaning towards their mom during a 20-minute long appearance.

Speaking to People about the upcoming festive season, Prince Albert noted that Monaco would maintain its social distancing guidelines, and celebrations would be done without the gathering of crowds.

With a personal experience of the novel coronavirus, it comes as no surprise that the monarch is taking all the required measures to protect himself, his family, and his people at large.
