PSG probe of Yap to proceed even after solon found negative for COVID-19
The Presidential Security Group (PSG) will continue its investigation of ACT-CIS party-list Representative Eric Go Yap for allegedly breaking COVID-19 protocols in Malacañang.
Yap attended a meeting in Malacañang on March 21, and failed to disclose symptoms and contact with infected individuals on his health declaration form.
However, the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine (RITM) clarified that Yap did not contract the virus and apologized for a clerical oversight.
Despite Yap testing negative for COVID-19, PSG commander Jesus Durante III stated that the investigation will proceed and that PSG personnel assigned at Malacañang will continue to self-quarantine until April 10.
