Minister in the Presidency Jackson Mthembu on Friday said the pair were still in self-isolation and had been working from home.

“We are glad that all their symptoms have cleared and we are looking forward to them finishing their 14 days of mandatory self-quarantine period,” he said. Mapisa-Nqakula’s private office staff were also tested.

“We once again extend our well-wishes to all who have contracted the Covid-19 disease. We also extend our condolences to the many families who have lost their loved ones due to the coronavirus,” said Mthembu.
