Miss France Clémence Botino was self-isolating on Monday after testing positive for COVID upon arriving in Israel to take part in the Miss Universe pageant in Eilat.
Botino arrived in Israel before the government put new restrictions in place due to the Omicron variant. As per regulations, she was tested and found positive. Sources said she was transported to self-isolation by ambulance and was expected to miss the pageant, which is scheduled to be held on Dec. 12.
Organizers of the Miss Universe pageant are doing their best to ensure that the event goes ahead as scheduled and in compliance with Israeli COVID regulations.
