QC Hall of Justice on lockdown over suspected COVID-19 death

The Quezon City Hall of Justice is under lockdown starting Monday, May 18, as a precautionary measure following reports of a suspected COVID-19 patient's death.

Executive Judge Cecilyn Burgos-Villavert stated that an employee from another agency working in the building died of severe pneumonia and suspected COVID-19 before the lockdown was implemented.

Contact tracing and disinfection will be conducted if the information is confirmed, but no RTC or MeTC employees have been reported to have died from the virus.
