KUANTAN – Pahang Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail and 10 state excos have been confirmed negative for Covid-19 after completing their two-week self-quarantine.

The Menteri Besar’s Office, in a statement today, said the quarantine began on September 28 as a precautionary measure after some excos went to Sabah to help in the election campaign ahead of the September 26 state polls.

It said returnees underwent a Covid-19 test at a private hospital in Kuala Lumpur immediately upon their arrival in the peninsula, and were tested several times during their quarantine period.

Wan Rosdy today shared photos on social media of his first meetings at Wisma Sri Pahang since being confirmed virus-free. – Bernama, October 12, 2020
