Four DPWH staff in Bago City had tested positive for coronavirus disease.
Four staff from the 4th Engineering District of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) in Bago City in Negros Occidental had tested positive for coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
This, as Ceander Rosquillo — a health officer of the Bago City Health Office who was in charge of monitoring coronavirus cases in the city — said that such employees were the close contact of a fellow staff member who had tested positive for coronavirus disease.
One of those staff members was from Bago City, one from Pulupandan, and two from Binalbagan. All of them were already quarantined at the isolation facilities of their respective local government units.
Their close contact might have infected an Authorized Person Outside Residence (APOR) from Victorias City who also had tested positive for coronavirus disease after going to the Land Transportation Office (LTO) in Bacolod City.
