Bettel, 48, announced his positive test shortly after attending a two-day European Union summit with 26 other bloc leaders.
At first, he had only mild symptoms but on Sunday he had to be hospitalized.
Organizers of the EU summit said they were confident all precautionary measures against this virus were being strictly observed during the two-day meeting.
