“Good evening Bohol. I just concluded a conversation with Dr. Jim Bernadas of DOH 7, at 10pm. First, he relayed to me a list of 17 Bol-anons who tested negative to the Covid 19 via PCR tests conducted. This list is still being dis-aggregated to OFWs and those from our community swabbing efforts. However, the two negative results we received this afternoon, are already part of this list of 17 names.
Second and as importantly, one doctor and two medical technologists sent by the Gallares Hospital to train in Cebu, have tested Covid 19 Positive from a PCR Test given last Wednesday. They arrived in Cebu early this week from Dumaguete, Negros Oriental and Bohol. They are asymptomatic and are presently isolated in Cebu. DOH 7 has begun the contact tracing protocol. We will release information as we receive them from DOH 7. Let us pray for their recovery. Thank you.”
