Australia’s deputy Prime Minister, Barnaby Joyce, has tested positive for corona virus after arriving in the US on an official visit.
Joyce said he believed he had been infected while visiting the UK earlier this week, adding that he was now in isolation and experiencing mild flu-like symptoms.
The Deputy Prime Minister noted that he had tested negative before leaving the UK, but upon arrival in the US he felt some fatigue and pain in his legs.
No other member of the Australian government delegation has tested positive so far.
