DepEd Sec. Briones
IKINALUNGKOT ng Palasyo ang kumpirmasyon ni Education Secretary Leonor Briones na nagpositibo siya sa coronavirus disease (COVID-19) sa pagsasabing nananalangin ang buong bansa para sa kanyang agarang paggaling.
“We are sad to hear that Sec. Leonor Briones is COVD-19 positive. We are praying that she gets healed from this dreadful disease,” sabi ni Presidential Spokesperson at Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Salvador Panelo.
Mismong si Briones ang nagkumpirma na nagpositibo siya sa COVID-19 sa ikalawang pagsusuri.
“Sec. Briones has been an indefatigable and conscientious member of the Cabinet. As expected and as announced by her, she will continue to perform her duties as Education Secretary while in isolation and despite her present illness,” dagdag ni Panelo.
