Sophie Wilmès (45), the Belgian foreign minister, had meanwhile announce on Twitterthat a corona test came back with a positive result. Presumably she got infected in her family circle. She had declared on Fridaythat she had gone into isolation after discovering possible symptoms of Covid 19 disease. She immediately informed her doctor.

Chancellor Angela Merkel (66) had to go into quarantine for a good two weeks in March after coming into contact with a doctor who discovered the virus shortly afterwards. A total of three tests at Merkel were then negative.
