Quebec Premier François Legault tests positive for COVID-19, says he’s feeling good

Quebec Premier François Legault says he has tested positive for COVID-19.

Legault announced on social media he started to feel symptoms this afternoon and tested positive later in the day.

The 64-year-old premier says he’s feeling good and will work remotely for the next five days as per public health guidelines.

Quebec has seen a spike in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations in recent days, but public health officials have said it’s too early to determine whether the province is experiencing a sixth wave.
