Czech President Milos Zeman was taken back to hospital on Thursday after testing positive for the coronavirus, his office said, just hours after his release following more than six weeks of treatment for an unrelated condition.
Zeman, 77, was released to home care on Thursday morning but an ambulance took him back to the Central Military Hospital in the evening after testing positive at the presidential retreat at Lany, west of Prague.
He went into hospital a day after a parliamentary election in which Zeman's allies, led by Prime Minster Andrej Babis, lost to a centre-right coalition and the president's leverage over parliament was undermined. The hospital said earlier that the president had decided to continue treatment at the presidential retreat despite suggestions from the hospital that he should stay.
