Prince Charles is opening up about his recovery from COVID-19.

On Tuesday, Charles, 71, spoke about contracting the respiratory virus during a visit to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital with Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, revealing in a conversation with a health care worker that he is still recovering from the loss of his sense of taste and smell, according to the Daily Mail.

Charles contracted COVID-19, which has killed more than 40,000 people in the U.K., in March, though he said at the time that he had"mild symptoms." Tuesday's hospital visit was a way for Charles and Camilla to express their thanks to essential workers for keeping the health care and emergency services going throughout the pandemic.

The visit is also the first of several public engagements for Charles and Camilla this week. On Thursday, they are set to host French President Emmanuel Macron in a special ceremony at their London residence, Clarence House.
