This evening, 18 March, Prince Bertrand of Orleans and Bragança addressed Brazilian monarchists with some unfortunate news. Three of his younger brothers have tested positive for COVID-19 (coronavirus): Prince Antônio, Prince Francisco, and Prince Alberto.
Prince Antônio is sixty-nine years-old. Prince Francisco will turn sixty-five next month. Prince Alberto is sixty-two years-old. The brothers are receiving medical treatment. Prince Antônio is in hospital, as his case is a bit more serious. Together with their families, the three siblings live in the State of Rio de Janeiro, which is currently under quarantine due to the global pandemic.
