Italy's former PM Berlusconi hospitalized days after testing positive for Covid-19

Italy's former prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi, was taken to hospital in Milan for further medical examination after it was announced on Wednesday that his coronavirus test turned out to be positive.

The move was just a precaution as the political veteran’s condition was no cause for concern, Berlusconi’s Forza Italia said on Friday.

The 83-year-old MEP had been in self-isolation at his home in the town of Arcore, some 20 km (12.4 miles) northeast of Milan.
