Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa and his wife Jalani Premadasa have tested positive for COVID19.

Premadasa, in a Facebook post, said; "Yesterday, my wife was admitted to hospital with symptoms of Covid-19. She subsequently tested positive having done a PCR.

Following Health Guidelines, I did a PCR as well and was informed a short while ago that I too, have tested positive.

While my wife is being treated for her symptoms, I remain asymptomatic.

We are both currently being treated at hospital.

Leading the opposition's role in ensuring the safety of the people during these extremely difficult times, remains my priority, and I will continue to do my part in this united effort.

I urge the public to remain safe, and follow all Health Guidelines & Strictures as we fight this wave together, as a nation."
