Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, on Monday, revealed that he has been tested positive for COVID-19.
Justin Trudeau made this known on his verified Twitter page, as he allayed the fears of Canadians with the words, “I’m feeling fine.”
The 50-year-old politician also revealed that he would continue to work remotely while following the health guidelines that have been made available in the country.
Canadian Prime Minister also encouraged citizens to get their COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots.
He tweeted, “This morning, I tested positive for COVID-19. I’m feeling fine – and I’ll continue to work remotely this week while following public health guidelines. Everyone, please get vaccinated and get boosted.”
There has been a rising call for Canadian citizens, and indeed, citizens of affected countries to get their COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots.
As a way of curbing the spread, some countries have imposed travelling restrictions on countries with an increasing rate of COVID-19 infection, especially the Omicron variant.
The PUNCH had reported that the Director-General of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, Ifedayo Adetifa, in a statement, had insisted that the country would continue to require COVID-19 test results from inbound and outbound passengers.
According to the NCDC boss, the country had reported no fewer than 18,000 imported cases of COVID-19 from other countries in a short period.
