PETALING JAYA: Those who were quarantined after attending a post-Cabinet meeting, including Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin (pic), will be allowed to return to work on Thursday (June 4) as their test results show they are free from Covid-19, says Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.

"Yesterday (June 2) was the 14th day of their isolation. We have taken the swabs from them and everyone from the post-Cabinet meeting has tested negative," he said during his daily press briefing on Wednesday (June 3).
