Statement of Presidential Communications Secretary Martin Andanar on his complete recovery from COVID-19

I am pleased to share that I have fully recovered from COVID-19 after undergoing a 14-day home quarantine.

I thank the Lord for this blessing of being able to overcome the virus. I am also very grateful for my family, loved ones, and colleagues, among others, for all their support and prayers while I undertook my recovery.

Despite my clean bill of health, I will still observe another 5 days of voluntary quarantine to ensure the safety of those around me and those I will come into contact with.

With this, I call on those who have contracted the virus to remain strong-willed and to be hopeful of their recovery. And to trust that our Divine Creator will hear our prayers of healing and health.

We continue to remind everyone to observe all health protocols for us to be on the road towards our collective recovery as a nation from this pandemic.
