“My confirmatory test with the Philippine Red Cross has come out and shows that I no longer have live RNA cells of COVID-19,” Zubiri said.

A confirmatory swab test showed Senate Majority Leader Juan Miguel Zubiri negative for COVID-19, he told reporters in a message on Tuesday, July 28.on Monday, July 27, forcing him to skip physically attending President Rodrigo Duterte’s State of the Nation Address at the Batasan Pambansa in Quezon City that afternoon.

This could mean Monday’s RT-PCR test by the Department of Health detected only remnants of the novel coronavirus, which Zubiri contracted in mid-March. He was the first senator who had been infected with the virus but he was asymptomatic. He recovered in mid-April.
