‘Go should take pity on his boss. Duterte was seen having difficulty breathing in the 33-second video showing him jogging.’
INSTEAD of Sen. Christopher “Bong” Go posting staged photos to prove that the President is alive, why doesn’t Malacañang release a medical bulletin about the Chief Executive’s health?
That should once and for all end talks about his health, which has become so unhealthy not only for him but also for the public.
The talks have become morbid, made worse by news reports about 45 members of the Presidential Security Group testing positive for COVID-19 and Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque in the hospital also for COVID-19.
The report about his daughter, Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio, going to Singapore for “personal health management” has added fuel to rumors.
To prove that the President is alive, Go released on April 7, Wednesday, a picture of Duterte and him in what looks like an office with the Philippine Star issue of that day on the office table.
April 9, Friday, Araw ng Kagitingan ( Day of Valor ), there was only a written message by the President. No video message from the President, whom his spokesperson said “remains fit and healthy for his age.”
April 10, Saturday, Go released a set of photos and a short video showing the President jogging at night. There was no indication when it was taken.
It’s pathetic.
Go should take pity on his boss. Duterte was seen having difficulty breathing in the 33-second video showing him jogging.
Tigilan na, please. Just release a medical bulletin.
Section 12 of Art. VII of the Constitution states: “In case of serious illness of the President, the public shall be informed of the state of his health.”
