PRESS Secretary Trixie Cruz-Angeles announced on Monday she has contracted the coronavirus.
In a video posted on her official Facebook page, Cruz-Angeles said she underwent real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) testing on Sunday and her results came back positive.
“Kahapon nagpa-Covid swab test ako, RT-PCR at lumabas ang resulta kaninang umaga. Ako po ay positive for Covid. Kung kaya’t sa bahay muna ako magtatrabaho habang ako ay naka isolation,” she said.
Cruz-Angeles said that she does not exhibit any symptoms, but will isolate as a precaution until her isolation period ends.
“Sa kabila po nito, tayo po ay asymptomatic at magpapatuloy tayo sa pagtatrabaho habang naka-isolate para maka-recover,” she said in the caption of her video.
Asked if she has come in contact with President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., she said the President is fine.
