DILG Usec Epimaco Densing tests positive for COVID-19

Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Undersecretary for Operations Epimaco Densing III announced he tested positive for COVID-19.

Densing confirmed his diagnosis on Facebook, stating he is receiving treatment at a hospital of his choice and his body is responding well.

He attributed his weakened immunity to a demanding workload and numerous decisions.

Densing urged the public to prioritize their health and be mindful of others.

He also requested prayers for his recovery, President Duterte, and the country.

Densing is the second DILG official to contract the virus, after Secretary Eduardo Año, who has since recovered.
