In the wake of COVID-19 threat, Lovi said she's very mindful of her actions, especially when making contact with people on the set.

“Even us, nakaugalian ko na makipagbeso sa mga tao and lumapit sa mga tao. Minsan it's something that I still want to do but parang ngayon like what you said, we have to be extra careful na talaga,” Lovi said.

“It if isn't necessary, avoid the big crowds,” actor Benjamin advised the public.

The two also cancelled their flights abroad in order to avoid contacting the deadly virus.

“I was supposed to go to Italy and mayroon din akong store opening sa Middle East na na-cancel din because of what's happening,” Lovi shared.

Benjamin likewise related that he decided not to risk going to other countries for his safety.

“I really did make my decision not to because I don't want to jeopardize 'yung production if I ended up being quarantined for two weeks.

“That's minimum two weeks kung mahanap na wala kayong sakit. But if you're sick, it takes even more. I don't want to jeopardize the production,” he added.
