 The group of seven foreign ministers meeting in London was hit by a COVID-19 scare on Wednesday, when India's foreign minister and his entire team said they were self-isolating after two delegation members tested positive. Foreign dignitaries meeting for a major diplomatic conference in London this week have been hit with a COVID scare after two members of India's delegation tested positive. The group of seven or G7 conference is the first such event in two years. Now, India's foreign minister and his entire team say they're self-isolating. British rules require a 10-day self-isolation period. India, which is currently undergoing the world's worst surge in COVID-19 cases, is attending the G7 as a guest and has been due to take part in meetings on Tuesday evening and throughout Wednesday. India's foreign minister took to Twitter saying he will conduct his meetings virtually as a measure of abundant caution. Britain is hosting the three-day meeting, which has been heavily billed as a chance to restart face-to-face diplomacy and an opportunity for the West to show a united front against threats from China and Russia. The meeting is a precursor to the main G7 summit due to take place at a rural English resort in June with US President Joe Biden and other world leaders set to attend. Updates
