MANILA – Department of Justice (DOJ) Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla is back on duty starting Thursday,
seven days after he contracted coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19).

Mico Clavano, a lawyer with the Office of Justice Secretary, said Remulla has physically reported back to
work after a week of working in isolation.

Remulla last Thursday tested positive for Covid-19 but said he manifested only "very mild" symptoms
and he would follow the protocol for isolation and observation of seven days.

He has since tested negative twice on subsequent tests.

Remulla attended the first Cabinet meeting of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. at the Malacañang Palace
on Tuesday last week.

Marcos also tested positive for the coronavirus Friday (July 8). (PNA)
