On Facebook the PM wrote:
Marti Lydia rriżultat pożittiva għall-Covid-19 wara test li għamlet minħabba impenji li kellna fil-jiem li ġejjin.
Lydia tinsab tajba u ma kellha u m’għandha l-ebda sintomi. It-testijiet tiegħi u ta’ Giorgia Mae rriżultaw fin-negattiv.
Naturalment, dan ifisser li bdejna nosservaw perjodu ta’ kwarantina.
Bis-saħħa tat-teknoloġija se nkompli għaddej b’ħidmieti, inkluż b’laqgħat importanti li għandi fil-jiem li ġejjin.
Lydia is fine and she had no symptoms. My test results and those of Giorgia Mae came out negative. Naturally, this means that we have started observing a period of quarantine,” the Prime Minister said.
