Sec. Andanar, personal na kinumpirma na tinamaan ng Covid- 19

KINUMPIRMA mismo ni Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO) Secretary Martin Andanar na positibo siya sa Covid-19 at isang asymptomatic.

Sa kalatas na ipinalabas ni Andanar, nakasaad dito na kaagad siyang nag-isolate at nag-home quarantine.

“I would like to confirm that I have, unfortunately, tested positive for COVID-19. Though I am asymptomatic, I was immediately isolated and placed on home quarantine,” anito.

Nasabihan na rin aniya ang mga taong kanyang nakahalubilo.

“Contact tracing of those I have interacted with has also been done in accordance to the rules set by our authorities, and to ensure the safety of my staff, of my family, and of the public,” ani Andanar.

Tiniyak naman niya na siya ay okay at ipagpapatuloy ang kanyang trabaho at gampanan ang kanyang tungkulin kabilang na ang pagho-host ng regular shows para ipaalam sa publiko ang mga nangyayari sa bansa habang nagpapagaling mula sa virus.

Samantala, nakiusap naman si Andanar na huwag patulan ang mga malicious gossip mongers, na kumakalat ngayon sa pamamagitan ng text messages.

Giit nito, hindi niya nilabag ang travel restrictions, “as these strict protocols are in place for our safety, more importantly, I would never jeopardize the well-being of others.”

Sa ngayon, pinaalalahanan niya ang lahat na mag-ingat dahil madaling kapitan ng COVID-19 ang kahit na sinuman.

Tinawagan din niya ng pansin ang mga nasa ilalim ng ECQ na maging bigilante at sundin ang extra measure na itinakda ng pamahalaan.

“Anyone can be infected, which is why we need to strictly adhere to the safety protocols. I also call on those in areas under ECQ to be extra vigilant and to follow the extra measures set in place by our government, they are for everyone’s safety,” ang panawagan ni Andanar. (Daris Jose)
