OTTAWA, ON – Canada’s Prime Minister has tested positive for COVID-19.

Justin Trudeau tweeted the news out Monday morning, noting he is feeling fine.

The PM said he will continue to work remotely this week while following public health guidelines. Trudeau also urged everyone to get vaccinated and get their COVID-19 booster shot.

Last week, Trudeau said he was self-isolating after learning he had been a close contact of someone who tested positive for COVID-19. Trudeau later told The Canadian Press that one of his three children had tested positive for the virus.
