Lapid tests positive for Covid-19 but shows only mild symptoms

The office of Senator Lito Lapid confirmed on Monday that he tested positive for Covid-19 but was showing only mild to moderate symptoms.

“He is currently undergoing treatment at the Medical City Clark where his doctors consider his case as mild to moderate,” his chief of staff Jericho Acedera said.

“All of those who have come in close contact with him already took the necessary tests and have been instructed to comply with the existing Covid-19 protocols,” Acedera said.

“As this happened when the Senate is not holding sessions, no member of our staff have been considerably exposed except for his personal and close-in employees who have tested negative in their antigen tests and currently exhibit no symptoms,” he added.

“We shall be reporting progress of his recovery when needed and as we get the news from his doctors. We enjoin everyone to pray that his health and of all those infected continue to improve, and more importantly, for this pandemic to soon be over,” Acedera said.
