Queen Test’s Positive for Covid – Mild, Cold-Like Symptoms

1 min read

Her Majesty the Queen has tested positive for COVID-19, but in spite of her advanced age is experiencing nothing more serious than mild, cold-like symptoms. BBC News has more.

The monarch is experiencing “mild cold-like symptoms” but expects to continue “light duties” at Windsor over the coming week, the palace said.

“She will continue to receive medical attention and will follow all the appropriate guidelines,” it added in a statement.

The Queen, 95, had been in contact with her eldest son and heir, the Prince of Wales, who tested positive last week.

It is understood a number of people have tested positive at Windsor Castle, where the Queen resides.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson tweeted: “I’m sure I speak for everyone in wishing Her Majesty The Queen a swift recovery from Covid and a rapid return to vibrant good health.”

Worth reading in full.

Oh no. This is terrible. The lady is in her 90s and has been struck down by the deadly killer plague. Surely she cannot survive!

Of course the powers that be will claim that her mild symptoms show the success of her vaccination. However, she has the best healthcare this country can offer and a team of minders ensuring social distancing, mask wearing, and so on. Surely they can’t still claim that these NPIs are efficacious?

She is content to remain the Queen of Canada, New Zealand and Australia (and its States), despite the authoritarian and brutal governments acting in her name. She ought to choose between them and the UK.

Oh dear, best lock her away in an old folk’s home – no visitors, total isolation + mandatory mask wearing as she will be a danger to other people without one.

I had no idea the Queen was a raging anti-vaxxer or otherwise she’d be totally immune to it.

Best wishes to HM. The longer she is with us the shorter we will have Charles. But the fact she is triple jabbed again makes it clear mandates are logically wrong. But it does seem to provide some (some, how much to be reviewed) help in fighting the virus. However it seems better curatives will matter more than continually rolling up our sleeves. Of course anyone traveling will have to keep getting jabbed as fear will take years to bring down.

You Majesty, take a few days off, even from the red boxes. You’ve earned it and, you already do more work than most of the younger generation.

BTW Boris, how out of touch are you really when half this blog and much of the country couldn’t care less about ‘our’ Queen or her family.

You don’t speak for a great many people in wishing her “Her Majesty The Queen a swift recovery from Covid and a rapid return to vibrant good health.”

As a regular human I hope she recovers, but please don’t expect us to gush about the over privileged life she’s led whilst the best excuse for her continuing reign is as a tourist attraction, with a family more dysfunctional than those living on a poverty stricken council estate.

Absolutely, her commonwealth people in Canada are literally being stamped on by authorities and she stays quiet but was quick enough to tell us all not to be selfish and get jabbed. She’s as much part of the Davos set as all the rest of her rotten family.

The major parts of the Commonwealth, Canada, Australia and New Zealand are being run by tyrants determined to usher in the ‘Davos’ era.

Not a squeak from Her Majesty by way of objecting to the brutal behaviour of police forces (and seemingly unidentified UN forces in Canada) against her subjects.

And we’re all expected to feign concern that the most shielded person in the world finally contracts covid, from her moronic son.

No sympathy from me. If she’s not prepared to defend the people who look to her for inspiration and justice, then she has no right to her excessive privilege.

Damn right. She saw fit to stick her oar in re the gene therapies (sic) but can’t open her gob regarding events in her Commonwealth.

As I posted earlier, this is one family desperately past its use by date. After what has gone on these last two years it is to me at least, clear that the Windsor mob have quite probably been working against this country for years. Now that might belong in the conspiracy drawer but given what we are living through it’s a distinct possibility. Why else did Liz weigh in on the injections?

Politically neutral my arse as Jim Royle would have put it.

It’s been nearly 70 years. Perhaps she needs reminding of her Coronation speech. She needs to speak out for those of us in Canada, Australia and NZ, seemingly abandoned by the Head of the Commonwealth. “Parliamentary institutions, with their free speech and respect for the rights of minorities, and the inspiration of a broad tolerance in thought and expression – all this we conceive to be a precious part of our way of life and outlook.
During recent centuries, this message has been sustained and invigorated by the immense contribution, in language, literature, and action, of the nations of our Commonwealth overseas. It gives expression, as I pray it always will, to living principles, as sacred to the Crown and Monarchy as to its many Parliaments and Peoples. I ask you now to cherish them – and practise them too; then we can go forward together in peace, seeking justice and freedom for all men.”

Personally, I hope Liz lives for another 20 years – I’m a republican, but don’t think I’ll get much joy in wishing they would all go and live in a tower block on benefits – but the thought of jug-ears as King, or bald Willy, terrifies me. Charles is already signed up to the NWO and can’t resist sticking his hooter in everywhere, so God help us if he becomes the don.

Didn’t she test positive a few weeks ago? So she’s had a similar cold like virus before and survived even at 95. Not a particularly deadly virus is it? Over the past 2 years I have personally known of 12 people who have died, all elderly except 1 who was over 30 stone, none with or of covid. So still not a deadly virus from my anecdotal observations.

A little o/t maybe, but have just seen that a DUP deputy speaker, Christopher Stalford, has died, suddenly and unexpectedly at 39 – yet another sudden death. Cause not mentioned.

Being as we live under a monarchy and she was ultimately responsible for passing the Coronavirus Act, somebody should ask her when she recovers whether she thinks it was worth the last 2 years of misery and why.

This country is a constitutional monarchy with Elizabeth II as Queen, Canada is a constitutional monarchy with Elizabeth as Queen, Australia is a constitutional monarchy with Elizabeth as Queen and New Zealand is a constitutional monarchy with Elizabeth as Queen. Law making power lies with parliament in all four countries, with the Queen or her representative signing off the bill to make it an act. The Queen can, in theory, refuse assent, this last happened in 1707, but is unlikely to happen as it has been agreed across both houses.

True enough, but none of these countries had suffered a brutal Fascist takeover before. You’d think their sovereign would care. Or at least bloody notice.

I fear the dooh dooh will really hit the fan when nut job Charlie gets his arse on the throne.

He’s as mad as a box of frogs but what makes him more dangerous is that he doesn’t know it. And, he’s up to his neck in the Reset. I don’t know about crowning him, well I could crown him – apologies, that’s local slang – because he’s a traitor.

I suppose we all tend to muddle the institution of monarchy with the characters involved. It is impossible for republicans to make much headway while the current queen is alive but as soon as Charles takes the throne I suspect the situation will change rapidly.

As someone wrote in an editorial linked in the daily round-up a while ago: From the perspective of a monarchist, pretty much all of the current Saxe-Coburg-Gotha-rebranded-Windsor-clan is a pretty sorry spectacle one would rather see go then come.

It’s still just one person, same as the foreign editor for that American news organisation who boasted about having just got his”booster” and how he didn’t like “antivaxxers” and then died suddenly a day or two later is just one person.
