Kinumpirma ni House Deputy Speaker at Manila 6th District Representative Bienvenido “Benny” Abante ngayong Miyerkules na nagpositibo siya sa test sa COVID-19.
“As part of regular precautions we have undertaken in our home to protect ourselves, our family, and our loved ones from COVID-19, I recently got tested for COVID. This morning I received the results of my test, which revealed that I am COVID-positive,” ani Abante sa isang statement.
Ayon kay Abante, natukoy na niya ang mga naging direct contact nitong mga nakalipas na araw, at pinayuhan na ring sumailalim sa self-quarantine habang sinabihan silang dapat na i-monitor ang kanilang sarili sa anumang COVID-19 symptoms.
Sinabi ni Abante na sa ngayon, nakakaramdam siya ng pananakit ng katawan subalit mino-monitor naman siya ng kanyang mga doktor.
“Aside from being fully vaccinated, I have also received my booster shot -- and it is clear, in my view, that the vaccines have helped me in these two bouts with the virus,” sabi ng Deputy Speaker.
“I enjoin everyone -- especially senior citizens like myself -- to get vaccinated and to get their booster shots, especially with the rising number of COVID cases in the country,” dagdag ni Abante. Ayon pa sa mambabatas, ito na ang ikalawang beses na tinamaan siya ng COVID-19.
