The King thanked the medical team for their quick intervention, which was made possible thanks to a recent hospital procedure. He remains completely positive about his treatment." and hopes to return to full public duties as soon as possible.

Charles is expected to still be able to attend Privy Council meetings, but details of how those meetings will take place are still being worked out. It is also hoped alternative arrangements will be made for his weekly audience with the prime minister if doctors advise. him to minimize direct contact.
He was last seen in public at Sandringham in Norfolk on Sunday, when he attended a church service with the queen, which was the first time he had been seen since he was discharged from the London Clinic. He smiled and waved to well-wishers as he walked to St. Mary's church. Mary Magdalene.
