“I’ve been informed that I participated in a meeting last Tuesday attended by a person who yesterday tested positive for Covid-19,” von der Leyen said on Twitter.

“In accordance with regulations in force, I’m therefore self-isolating until tomorrow morning. I’ve tested negative on Thursday and am tested again today.”
