3. Prince Charles
Prince Charles, 71, self-isolated for seven days in Scotland after testing positive for coronavirus. After his recovery, he opened a coronavirus hospital in London, NHS Nightingale Hospital.
“Clarence House has confirmed today that, having consulted with his doctor, The Prince of Wales is now out of self-isolation,” a spokesperson for the royal told Insider.
He experienced mild symptoms and appeared to recover in a relatively short period. “[Charles] did speak of his personal experience, so first-hand experience for him,” Mills said. “He also spoke about his loss of smell and taste, and sort of still felt he’s still got it now.”
“Having recently gone through the process of contracting this coronavirus, luckily with relatively mild symptoms, I now find myself on the other side of the illness, but still in no less a state of social distance and general isolation,” Prince Charles said in a video.
Nevertheless, his son was very worried about him and felt anxious when he found out that his father tested positive for COVID-19.
“And actually, he was very lucky, he had mild symptoms. I think the hardest thing he found was having to stop and not being able to go and get a bit of fresh air and go for a walk. He’s a mad walker, loves his walking. So I think he found it quite difficult…especially also with his mental health—being sort of stuck inside and not being able to go for walks.”
4. Donovan Mitchell
“The biggest thing for me is just to stay in isolation and just keep to myself,” Mitchell said. “I have no symptoms, which is a unique situation.”
“I keep making the joke to people that ask that if you were to tell me I might play in a seven-game series tomorrow, I’d be ready to lace up. I’m really blessed that that’s the case.”
The second NBA player who tested positive for the virus was Donovan Mitchell. Utah Jazz’s player announced on March 12 that he tested positive for coronavirus.
“As a follow-up to yesterday’s positive COVID-19 test, Oklahoma health officials tested all members of the Utah Jazz traveling party, confirming one additional positive outcome for a Jazz player. We are working closely with the CDC, Oklahoma and Utah state officials, and the NBA to monitor their health and determine the best path moving forward,” the statement reads.
“I could walk down the street. If it wasn’t public knowledge that I was sick, you wouldn’t know it. I think that’s the scariest part the virus: you may seem fine, be fine and but you never know who you may be talking to and who they’re going home to.”
According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, only two players from Utah Jazz were confirmed to have the virus.
