/ 05:16 AM September 25, 2020

Former Manila Archbishop Cardinal Luis Antonio “Chito” Tagle, the Vatican’s prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples, has tested negative for COVID-19, 12 days after he was found with the virus upon his arrival from Rome.

The cardinal is set to deliver on Sept. 25 a keynote address to the Catholic Educational Association of the Philippines, which recently elected Sister Marissa Viri, president of the University of the Immaculate Conception in Davao City, as its president.

The nun replaced Fr. Elmer Dizon. —JODEE A. AGONCILLO
