MAPUTO (Reuters) – Mozambique President Filipe Nyusi’s PCR results came back negative for COVID-19 after Nyusi and his wife Isaura tested positive via rapid tests days earlier, the president’s office said on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Nyusi wrote in a post on his official Facebook page that he would continue to isolate in line with national health protocols “until my wife’s health situation stabilises,” but neither the post nor a statement from Nyusi’s office said what Isaura Nyusi’s PCR test results showed.<\/p>\n

A spokesman for Nyusi was not immediately available to elaborate.<\/p>\n

Mozambique’s coronavirus infections are close to their peak, according to a Reuters tally. The southern African country has recorded over 2,000 COVID-19-related deaths and 196,000 infections during the pandemic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
