The monarch met ambassadors from Andorra and Chad via video call.
She was snapped on screen talking to the Ambassador of Andorra, Carles Jordana Madero, at Buckingham Palace, before receiving His Excellency Kedella Younous Hamidi from the Republic of Chad.
She had previously been forced to pull out of several engagements due to "mild cold-like symptoms".
But the hardworking monarch continued with "light duties" such as paperwork while isolating at Windsor Castle.
And she is now "a lot better", according to Prince Charles, who gave the update on his mother's condition while visiting the UK's newest city, Southend, Essex.
Her diagnosis came after she had been in direct contact with Charles, two days before he tested positive.
It is believed she spent time with her son when he hosted an investiture at the castle - the first time they had met face-to-face since Christmas.
Camilla too was later struck down with the virus, though both reported mild symptoms.
