French President Emmanuel Macron has tested positive for COVID-19.

The presidential Elysee Palace made the announcement on Thursday. Saying that the president took a test “as soon as the first symptoms appeared.”

The brief statement did not say what symptoms Macron experienced.

According to the statement, the French President would isolate himself for seven days.

“He will continue to work and take care of his activities at a distance,” it added.

However, it was not immediately clear what contact tracing efforts were in progress.

Macron attended a European Union summit at the end of last week, and he met Wednesday with the prime minister of Portugal. There was no immediate comment from Portuguese officials.
