The Prince of Wales has tested positive for COVID-19 and is now self-isolating, his office announced on Thursday.

“[His Royal Highness] is deeply disappointed not to be able to attend today’s events in Winchester and will look to reschedule his visit as soon as possible,” read a post from the prince’s Twitter account

Prince Charles was scheduled to unveil a statue of a medieval Jewish woman called Licoricia of Winchester on Thursday, according to the BBC, but the plans had to be canceled. Licoricia was a single mother and businesswoman in the late 1200s who was murdered in the English city of Hampshire, though no one was ever convicted, the news outlet noted.

The prince was also scheduled to attend a reception after the unveiling. 

It is unclear at the moment if Charles is showing symptoms of COVID-19.
