2 Metro Manila workers raise Pampanga town’s COVID-19 cases to 14
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO –– Two workers in Metro Manila raised to 14 the total cases of the coronavirus diseases (COVID-19) in Minalin town, Pampanga province, where the virus spread mostly through local transmission that prompted the lockdown of a village.
Minalin was free of COVID-19 cases from March 17 until the last week of June.
The new two patients, both men, did not show symptoms of the virus, according to Mayor Edgar Flores.
Flores lauded Case No. 14, a resident of Barangay San Nicolas, for informing local health authorities about the result of his swab test and going into self-isolation and treatment.
Case No. 13 returned to his village in Sto. Rosario after his company had him swabbed for a test. He was not in isolation in Minalin when the result of his test came out.
