Princess Leonor, the heir to the Spanish throne, has gone into quarantine after a classmate at her school tested positive for Coronavirus (COVID-19), according to the royal household spokesman.
The 14-year-old daughter of King Felipe will be tested for coronavirus like other pupils in her class at the Santa María de Los Rosales school in Madrid.
The spokesman added that the king and Queen Letizia will continue their royal duties for the moment.
It is worth mentioning that, Spain struggles to control a surge in coronavirus cases.
How to protect yourself from Coronavirus:
-Wash your hands frequently with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand rub if your hands are not visibly dirty as washing hands with soap and water eliminates the virus if it is on the hands.
-When coughing and sneezing, cover mouth and nose with flexed elbow or tissue – discard tissue immediately into a closed bin and clean your hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water to prevent the spread of germs and viruses. If you sneeze or cough into your hands, you can pass the virus to other people that you have contact with.
-Eat fruits and vegetables that contain Vitamin C so that your immune system could be enhanced for better and be able to confront viruses.
-Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth ashands touch many surfaces, which can be contaminated with the virus. If you touch your eyes, nose or mouth with your contaminated hands, the virus from the surface may infect you.
Accordingly, you need to keep surrounding surfaces clean and free of coronavirus.
Make sure to keep all surrounding surfaces clean, even those that don’t usually cross minds like: keyboards, phone receivers, doorknobs, light switches, and remote controls.
