An Iranian vice president who was a spokeswoman for the 1979 hostage-takers during the US embassy crisis has been infected with the new coronavirus.
Masoumeh Ebtekar, regarded as the most powerful woman in Iranian politics, was said to have contracted the infection this week, according to local media.
She was seen sitting near President Hassan Rouhani during a meeting of Iranian cabinet members yesterday. Ebtekar's case was said to be mild and she has not been admitted to hospital.
She became known as Screaming Mary during the 1979 US embassy crisis in Tehran when she acted as an English-speaking spokesman for the hostage takers.
Her diagnosis comes as it emerged today that Iran's former ambassador to the Vatican, Hadi Khosroshahi, died of coronavirus.
News of Ebtekar's infection was published today by the English-language IRAN state-owned daily newspaper via its Twitter account.
Ebtekar was known as 'Mary' and also 'Screaming Mary' for her nightly televised rants against American imperialism throughout the 1979 US embassy hostage crisis in Tehran.
