Spain’s Princess Leonor & Sofia To Be Quarantined After Classmate Tests Positive for Coronavirus

Leonor, Princess of Asturias and Infanta Sofia of Spain will be quarantined after a classmate tested positive for COVID-19 coronavirus.

The young Spanish royals had only just returned to school when the positive test was revealed.

The person who tested positive is a classmate of Leonor, 14, who will now undergo a 14-day quarantine for precaution. Sofia, who accompanied her sister to school, will also have to be quarantined as well.

Leonor returned to school on Wednesday (September 9), while Sofia just started back today (September 11).

In Spain, social bubbles had been created for students and contact between classes is limited to avoid infection.

Earlier in the year, Leonor and Sofia‘s parents, King Felipe and Queen Letizia were also tested and put in quarantine after Letizia was in contact with someone who had tested positive.
