MANILA, Philippines — Presidential aspirant Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. is in isolation following exposure to confirmed COVID-19 cases, causing a delay in the proceedings at the Commission on Elections’ preliminary conference on disqualification bids against him on Friday morning.

 

Commissioner Rowena Guanzon, head of the 1st Division, earlier said the conference on three petitions for disqualification would start at 9 a.m., and would be streamed on Facebook, but proceedings only started past 10:30 a.m.

 

"Hearing cannot begin, we are waiting for the medical certificate of Marcos Jr. to prove he is not well, hence he is absent," she wrote in a tweet.
