Mr Russell-Moyle said the testing process had been swift and well-managed.
He said: “They took a swab from my mouth and nose.
“It was decided they would come and visit me because I had been in contact with a confirmed case.”
Mr Russell-Moyle explained he had come into contact with the Government’s health minister Nadine Dorries, who tested positive for the virus earlier this week.
