(UPDATE) Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin "Boying" Remulla has tested positive for COVID-19, he told reporters Sunday.
"I have COVID. Tested positive Thursday," he said ad he begged off from a meet-and-greet session with reporters covering the Justice beat originally scheduled on Monday.
"Very mild. But protocol is 7 days," he added, when asked how his condition is.
In a separate tweet on Sunday afternoon, Remulla said he has "recovered enough" and will work from home from Monday to Wednesday.

"4 days after testing positive, I believe that I have recovered enough to go back to work. But the protocol for those who are fully vaccinated is a seven day quarantine," he wrote.
