Interior Secretary Eduardo Año on Friday said he tested negative for coronavirus disease (COVID-19) after being infected for the second time last August 14.

“The result came out in the afternoon of September 2. It is already negative,” Año said.

Last August 16, he said he began experiencing flu-like symptoms, including sore throat and body aches. He was tested positive for COVID-19.

Año, vice chairman of the National Task Force against COVID-19, was infected by the virus last March. Ella Dionisio/DMS
