FRANKFURT (Reuters) - European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said on Thursday she has tested positive for COVID-19 but her symptoms are mild and she will continue to work.

"I am vaccinated and boosted, and my symptoms are thankfully reasonably mild," she said on Twitter. "I will work from home in Frankfurt until I am fully recovered. There is no impact on the ECB’s operations."

The ECB is due to hold its next policy meeting on April 14.
