Queen Elizabeth II’s doctors are worried about the health of the 96-year-old monarch. This was announced by Buckingham Palace on Thursday. “Following a further assessment this morning, the Queen’s doctors are concerned about Her Majesty’s health and have recommended that she remain under medical observation,” a palace spokesman said. However, the Queen feels comfortable and is staying at her country estate, Balmoral Castle, it said.

It was only on Wednesday that the Queen had to cancel her participation in a virtual meeting of her Privy Council. The day before, she had first received Boris Johnson, who handed in his resignation, and immediately afterwards Liz Truss, who appointed her as the new Prime Minister. It was a full day, said a spokesman to justify the cancellation on Wednesday.
