CABANATUAN CITY –– Mayor Emerson Pascual of Gapan City and his sister, fourth district board member Joy Pascual, have undergone a voluntary 14-day quarantine even after they tested negative for the coronavirus disease (COVID-19).

The parents of the two officials have previously contracted the virus.

But Pascual assured the public that their parents were in good condition.

“Don’t worry because I will continue doing my job and you will see me after my quarantine,” Pascual said on Facebook live on Tuesday night.
