She is feeling well and has mild symptoms, and will remain in isolation for 14 days, according to a statement from the Prime Minister’s office. He is not being tested at this time.

Health officials will reach out to those who’ve been in contact with her as necessary, the office said.

“The Prime Minister is in good health with no symptoms. As a precautionary measure and following the advice of doctors, he will be in isolation for a planned period of 14 days,” the office said in a statement. “Also on the advice of doctors, he will not be tested at this stage since he has no symptoms.
