The President of Argentina, Alberto Fernandez, announced on April 2 that he had tested positive for the Chinese Communist virus. Fernandez had previously been vaccinated against the Russian virus.
Fernandez tweeted, “I had a fever of 37.3 degrees and a slight headache, so I had an antigen test and it came back positive.” He is still waiting for the PCR test results to confirm.
Fernandez, whose 62nd birthday falls on the 2nd, has placed himself in self-imposed quarantine as a precaution. He said, “I’m in a good mood, although I wish I didn’t have this kind of news for my birthday.”
He also said that he is “in good health”.
Prior to that, President Fernandez had received the Russian Sputnik-V vaccine and administered a second dose on Feb. 11.
The number of confirmed cases in Argentina continues to climb. The total number of confirmed cases in Argentina, which has a population of more than 44 million, has exceeded 2.37 million, and more than 56,000 patients have died. Authorities said more than 680,000 people have been fully vaccinated with the new crown vaccine.
