Queen Elizabeth II has canceled a planned trip to Northern Ireland for health reasons.
"The Queen reluctantly accepted the medical advice to rest for the next few days," said a statement from Buckingham Palace.
The 95-year-old monarch is in good spirits, but disappointed that she cannot keep her appointments in Northern Ireland.
The decision has nothing to do with Corona, reported the British news agency PA, citing palace circles.
Queen showed up with a walking stick
Last week there had already been concerns about the Queen's health when she showed up twice with a walking stick.
However, the monarch's calendar was still full.
She only received business representatives in Windsor on Tuesday.
At the beginning of November, the Queen wants - at least according to previous plans - to take part in the UN world climate conference in Glasgow.
