Canada's Justin Trudeau tests positive for Covid after Americas summit
The Canadian premier, 50, previously tested positive for Covid in January.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Monday that he had tested positive for COVID-19, adding that he was feeling fine since he was vaccinated.
Last week, Trudeau met US President Joe Biden and attended the Summit of the Americas in California, where leaders from the region gathered to discuss issues impacting those countries, including immigration.
"I've tested positive for COVID-19. I'll be following public health guidelines and isolating. I feel okay, but that's because I got my shots," Trudeau, who is now in Ottawa, said in a tweet.

Following the development, a White House official said US President Biden was not in close contact with Trudeau at the summit.
