Make of this what you will: Up to 150 Saudi Royals Infected With Coronavirus [View all]

Link to MSN version of Newsweek story here.

As many as 150 members of the Saudi Arabian royal family may have been infected with coronavirus, according to a new report.

According to The New York Times, as many as 150 Saudi royals are believed to have contracted the virus, including members of the lesser branches of the extensive family. The Times cited a person close to the family as giving the information. Newsweek has contacted the Saudi government and its embassy in Washington, D.C. for comment.


I will be interested to see the White House response (if any) to this report.
