Members of the Dutch government are to be tested for COVID-19 after a cabinet minister contracted the coronavirus, ANP reported referring to health minister Hugo De Jonge.

According to him, members of the government must be tested, but there is no need to place them under quarantine after deputy minister of economy Mona Keijzer contracted the coronavirus.

Keijzer was at a weekly cabinet meeting Friday attended by the prime minister and more than a dozen senior government officials.
