ZAGREB, Oct 26, 2020 – Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic was tested for coronavirus on Sunday and the test has come back negative, government spokesman Marko Milic confirmed on Monday.
The prime minister underwent testing after on Saturday a meeting was held in government offices that was also attended by Tourism and Sports Minister Nikolina Brnjac, who on Sunday tested positive for COVID-19.
The meeting focused on the drafting of a national development strategy for the period until 2030 and a national recovery and resilience plan, as well as on the fight against COVID-19.
Brnjac decided to get tested after she felt symptoms of the disease. Her condition is good and she has mild symptoms, Milic said on Sunday.
Labour Minister Josip Aladrovic and Economy Minister Tomislav Coric, who sat next to Brnjac at the meeting, are self-isolating while other participants in the meeting are being monitored and have been instructed to get tested, Milic said on Sunday.
