MANILA, Philippines — Both Manila Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso and Vice Mayor Honey Lacuna are in stable condition at the Ospital ng Maynila after contracting COVID-19.

In a medical bulletin released on Tuesday, Sta. Ana Hospital Director Grace Padilla said that Domagoso’s vital signs are “all normal” and his laboratory tests “within normal levels.”

“His vital signs are all normal, he continues to have no fever. His ECG is normal. He is able to rest and sleep well and he has a fair appetite,” Padilla said.

“Baseline laboratory tests were conducted yesterday to include inflammatory markers (LDH, SGPT d dimer, ferritin procalcitonin), the results of all tests are within normal levels,” she added.

On the other hand, Padilla said Lacuna “is remarkably improving and having a good appetite” as well.

“A repeat laboratory test on an inflammatory marker (d dimer) is normal,” she added. “She is for repeat Chest X-Ray today and soon will be home discharge as she continues to exhibit remarkable recovery.”

Domagoso tested positive on new coronavirus on Sunday while Lacuna contracted the virus on August 8.
