As per a spokesperson for Clarence House, "In accordance with government and medical advice, Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall are now self-isolating at home in Scotland. The tests were carried out by the NHS in Aberdeenshire where they met the criteria required for testing. It is not possible to ascertain from whom the Prince caught the virus owing to the high number of engagements he carried out in his public role during recent weeks."
