Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain appeared in public for the first time wearing a mask. The 94-year-old sovereign laid a wreath at the Unknown Hero’s tomb in Westminster Abbey.
Until now, Queen Elizabeth II has been in solitary confinement at Windsor Castle, to be protected from possible infection with the new coronavirus, because, due to her age, both she and Prince Philip are at risk.
On the other hand, the royal family was not immune to the epidemic. The heir to the throne, Prince Charles, and his wife Camilla contracted the virus and were healed, as did the queen’s nephew, Prince William, second in line to the throne.
On October 15, Queen Elizabeth II held her first public activity outside of her official residence since the COVID-19 pandemic began.
Accompanied by her nephew, Prince William, the sovereign visited the Defense Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl), Port Down, near Salisbury, where she spoke with researchers who are concerned, among other things, with the fight against the pandemic in Britain. .
The queen did not wear a mask on this occasion, but exceptional measures were taken to protect her from COVID-19, as all the people who came into contact with her were previously tested.
