    Actually I might have misheard where he's staying, he might be in a suite here. Bit of a bitch if the butler isn't allowed in.

    But more likely a chalet at the Ritz Carlton. A 30 minute drive rather than a five minute one.

    I must admit ignorance. Didn't know that Eswatini was a country. But it has made history today, with its prime minister dying of COVID. I believe this is the first senior government official anywhere to succumb. May he rest in peace.

    "Eswatini Prime Minister Ambrose Dlamini, who tested positive for COVID-19 four weeks ago, has died at age 52 after being hospitalised in neighbouring South Africa, the tiny absolute monarchy’s government said late on Sunday."

    “Their Majesties have commanded that I inform the Nation of the sad and untimely passing away of His Excellency the Prime Minister Ambrose Mandvulo Dlamini. His Excellency passed on this afternoon while under medical care in a hospital in South Africa”, Deputy Prime Minister Themba Masuku said in a statement."

    Maybe we should split the inheritance since my post informed you that the email's story is (somewhat) legit.

    Greg Norman back in US hospital with 'hideous' Covid-19 symptoms

    Greg Norman is back in hospital in Florida with “hideous” Covid-19 symptoms after the Australian golfing great tested positive.


    The 65-year-old, whose two major titles came at the Open in 1986 and 1993, has been posting regular updates regarding his diagnosis on his Instagram page.


    Having initially tested negative at the exhibition PNC Championship in Orlando, which ran 19-20 December, he later in the week began to experience fever, joint and muscle aches.


    Norman visited hospital on Christmas Day and returned home to self-isolate on Boxing Day while awaiting the results of another test.


    “I hope this will be my final update on this COVID saga ... back in hospital after getting a positive result,” he wrote on Instagram, adding he was receiving an infusion of antibodies. “The path to full recovery. Hoping to be out later today.”


    Norman said that despite being fit and strong and having a high tolerance for pain, the “hideous” virus had “kicked the crap out of me like nothing I have ever experienced before”.


    “Muscle and joint pain on another level. Headaches that feel like a chisel going through your head scraping little bits off each time, fever, muscles that just did not want to work like yesterday walking my dog Apollo my quads and hip flexors just did not want to work due to fatigue.


    “Then my taste failed, where beer tastes bad and wine the same ... at times struggling with memory of names and things.”


    Norman’s son, also named Greg, had played with his father at the PNC Championship and has already confirmed he and his wife had tested positive.

    She's not stabbing him.....she's charging his high-tech electric walker, using a conducting rod like what they use from trams to the wires above. Being royalty, she has a high charge.

    The Queen tests positive for Covid

    The Queen has tested positive for Covid, Buckingham Palace has said.

    The TeakDOOR Famous People with Covid-19 thread-_123324507_gettyimages-1238528808-jpg


    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."

    The announcement comes weeks after the UK's longest reigning monarch reached her Platinum Jubilee of 70 years on 6 February.

    She carried out her first major public engagement for more than three months on the eve of her Jubilee, meeting charity workers at Sandringham House.

    Charles met Queen two days before testing positive
    Camilla tests positive for coronavirus

    The Queen, who will be 96 in April, had her first vaccine in January 2021 and is believed to have had all her follow-up jabs after that.

    BBC royal correspondent Nicholas Witchell said she had been taking life "rather more easily" since spending a night in hospital for medical checks in October last year.

    Meanwhile, BBC health correspondent Jim Reed said newly-approved antiviral drugs could aid the Queen's recovery.

    He said the drugs were now a key way to cut the risk of vulnerable people needing hospital treatment, adding it would be a fair assumption that they would be offered to the monarch.

    Currently available antivirals need to be taken within three to five days of contracting Covid.

    On Tuesday, the Queen attended her first official engagement since coming into contact with Prince Charles, holding a virtual meeting with two new ambassadors to the UK.

    The following day, she smiled as she suggested she had mobility problems during a meeting with defence staff. Standing while using a walking stick, she pointed to her left leg and said: "Well, as you can see, I can't move."

    Prince Charles' wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, tested positive for the virus last weeks, days after her husband.

    It was the first time the duchess had caught Covid, and the second time for Prince Charles.

    The Royal Household has its own physicians, and the Queen's is Sir Huw Thomas, a consultant at St Mary's Hospital in London and professor of gastrointestinal genetics at Imperial College London.

    He is "head of the medical household", which is part of the Royal Household looking after the health of the family.
