The Deputy Prime Minister went for a COVID-19 test after 'experiencing mild symptoms'.
Mr Joyce then travelled to the United States to find support to halt the power of Facebook and its founder Mark Zuckerberg, saying the CEO is"not above democracy".
He was scheduled to meet with Republican Senator Ted Cruz and Marsha Blackburn in Washington DC on Wednesday .Mr Joyce's mission against Facebook came after he was personally affected by online bullying. The Deputy Prime Minister revealed his daughter became a victim of social media bullying and vowed to protect her and her other daughter from the"literal filth that is the 'content' of so many online platforms and their miscreant authors".
"People and organisations have made themselves rich beyond our comprehension in the business of providing these platforms - unimaginable wealth from the the computer coding behind Google, Twitter, Facebook, Tik Tok," Mr Joyce said at the time. "The public has reasonable grounds to ask that these companies, supporting the lifestyles of billionaires, do not make their money by dropping character bricks on the heads of innocent private individuals."
