Yesterday, Sunday 6 December 2020, the Crown Prince Couple were briefed about a local outbreak of COVID-19 at Tranegårdskolen in Hellerup. Subsequently, Prince Christian has tested positive for COVID-19.

His Royal Highness is in isolation in Frederik VIII’s Palace at Amalienborg. Other than the Crown Prince family, Prince Christian has not been in contact with other members of the royal family very recently.

In connection with the test result, the Royal Danish House has received guidance from the Danish Patient Safety Authority concerning infection detection and testing of the Crown Prince family. In coming days, the family will stay in isolation in Frederik VIII’s Palace until it is once again safe to discontinue the isolation according to the existing guidelines.
